Getting the Mega Cab Lifted Next Week!!!

I finally made up my mind and went with a 6" Revtek lift kit with 20 x 10 wheels and 37-13-50-20 tires. They will be put on next week and I will post pics then. Wish me luck on the fender trimming. Will probably just have a body shop roll the fender a little bit and you won't even be able to notice.

I need to get some pics but yes it is done. It is a 6" RevTek lift with 20x10 wheels and 37/13.50/20 Toyo M/T. It drives great. At least the same if not better than stock. It still has a driveline vibration sometimes around 15-18mph but we will be getting rid of that soon. Very impressed with the overall ride.

Yes, I put the 2 spacers that came with it but I guess they are not enough. I think I will get the Tuff Country spacer as it drops it a little lower. I'll see what happens.

I ended up shimming my carrier bearing more than an inch on top of the drop bracket that BDS offers. Finally no driveline shudder. I can just floor it and go. Glad that I trimmed the fenders, no more wincing as I look for a parking space.

I was very happy with the Revtek lift. It was a better smoother ride than the BDS.

I don't know how to put pictures on here. Otherwise, I would put one of each of my trucks.
