Yukon 5.29's
Detroit rear, open front (for now)
custom rock sliders
custom flatbed

It doesn't rub too bad. I need to take the sawzall to the fenders a little but I don't think I am going to have to tub them.

how come the rear is higher than the front ? those 4'' springs give enough lift for the 37s or you think you shoulda went with 5''ers

It sits pretty level, it's on a slope in the pics. Maybe slightly lower in the front, not by much though. The 4's give enough lift for the 37's. I found a good place to flex tonight and got it twisted up real good with the tire turned and it didn't make much contact with the fender, it seemed to just be that plastic lining that was in the way. No biggie.

Hey toyota4x4boy. Nice looking truck. I just installed the same 4" IFS eliminator kit in my truck. Same model as yours. I find mine leans to the passenger side about 3/4" of an inch. It's only been on for 3 days so I was going to give it some time and see if it settles out. Anything like that happen with yours?

Also what do you think of the flex. I'm actually a bit dissapointed so far.http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7125/2004/1600/IMG_0477.jpg

Hey nice truck man. Got any more pics?

I haven't measured mine but I haven't noticed it leaning to one side. Did you install the pad on the spring perch? I have only flexed mine up a couple times so far. The front seems to flex real well but I am a little disappointed with the rear, doesn't seem to flex anymore than my old 4" Superlift springs did. Hopefully once the springs break in they will flex better.

I did install the pad but I might end up taking it out. I think that may level it out. I'll wait a few weeks though.

I have the opposite. My rear flexes really well and the front seems a bit stiff. I'll wait for the springs to soften up a bit before I pass judgement though. I'll post up a few pics.

Really clean looking truck man. You got any pics of it flexing?

Thanks. Eventually I'd like to flat deck it like yours. It'll be awhile though. No flex pics yet. Maybe after the weekend. I'll post some when I do.
