had a little fun today
Installed a 6.5" lift on a buddies 06 2wd truck today. Nice kit (CST) and was easy to install. Rides great and tracks down the road straight.

Did he not like the decal on the drivers side? Looks great, never would guess it's 2wd and still get respectable fuel economy.

RIch- Eric needs injectors. We are going to run a flow rate return test on it when I get back from Dallas. I thought I was going to be able to get a good used set to save him some money but that fell thru.

you can stuff a 35 under it with the correct back spacing. MFG requires a minimum of 18" wheel with 5" backspacing.

Looks good! What tires are on it in these pics?

I've always been surprised at how lifting a 2wd of anything can help. I looked at Chevy Colorados a lot for a little truck to take to work. I wanted a 2wd and knew right away I'd want to lift it.

Looks like they are Michelin LTX A/T2 tires.
