well, I picked it up on Tuesday and dropped it off at 4WP for two days. So far I have done the Rancho 4" lift w/ 9000X shocks, 35" procomp Extreme At's, Procomp rims, Locking Fuel door, SMA Exhaust (B&B) and had front windows tinted to 15%. I have only put about 200 miles on the truck and the lift handles OK. It corners well and takes on bumps better than stock at speeds lower than 45 and anything above is still OK, but not the same feel as stock. Time will tell on how everything works out. The AP and DP angles have changed quite a bit. I will measure once the lift settles in about 1000 miles. I really wish someone made fender flares for it as the tires stick out quite a bit. Other than that i love it. Here's a couple of pics with my progress.
enjoy.

Tim the truck looks awesome! Love the rims, There is a company that makes wider fender flares except they come in carbon fiber, I am actualy about to put them on mine, I will get the name for you if you are interested. By the the Ranco lift looks great! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

First of all, I posted those pics long before the H3 forum even existed. They are still on the forum. You can find them by doing a search.
Second of all, I am not Badrap. What is your problem?
I have not received my doctorate (yet). I said I had a Master's. Know the difference? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Badrap?? Go check again, I think you've got some trouble reading...

On another note, the rim/ tire issue came up again. 4.5" backspacing isn't enough for aring down. The sidewall of the tire hits. It actually binds up. So I am going to try a 4" backspace and see if that will work. Otherwise, the lift is coming off. I just wonder if I can fit a 35" tire on there without ripping out my wheel liners. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Yep, no problem on the 35's. |

GOBI= SOON. Only a single ladder can be used and is on the DRSD. The hinges and handle setup kinda require it go where we have been mounting them. The ladder will be down the road once I have the new bumpers on. The new rear bumper pushes out the tire more as it uses the same style carrier that the 05/06 H2 uses. Than I'll put on a ladder that looks very close to the H2 ladders.
Thanks for all the compliments!
