    I've done a fair amount of reading about suspension kits and I believe this is going to be the kit I go with when I'm ready to eliminate my xreas and upgrade tire size (including the uca).

    Looks amazing btw:bowdown:

    Reviving an old tread, but how do you like it a year later? I'm stuck between this and the eibach pro truck kit.

    Thanks!

    After a year plus, I am WELL SATISFIED with my Dobinsons Lift! I had to order 400lb rear springs last fall, because my 200lb springs were not enough. I have added so much gear i just had to upgrade. I highly recommend the Dobinsons system. I added a 270 degree awning, a Dobinsons 40 liter fridge, Dobinsons Drawer system, a solar charging system for fridge,lots of recovery gear in the drawers, and towing this teardrop trailer that I rebuilt from the frame up!

    Thanks, definitely helps my decision! Your rig looks great! Is that the Wilco tire carrier or Detours of Maine? Also, great job on the trailer.

    @rrod

    truck looks great. Can you measure from hub to fender. Just wondering your overall lift.

    I also have the JBA UCA which I hope to install soon. Did you by chance install two washers per side. It’s suppose to push up on the boot to stop grease from coming out. Here’s a pic.
