I emailed sam's offroad, and asked them if they actually did the lift for Chad, and what they thought about the lift. This is the response I got: "we were pretty happy with the quality of the kit but the installation was
tough. The alignment came out perfect and that's how we can tell a lot of
times if the kit is a good kit. After installing some lift kit's we can not
get the 4x4 with in alignment specs and the vehicle doesn't drive right. I
really think you would like this kit so give us a call. Thanks.

So it seems that the lift actually worked. I'm still not convinced, so let's see some pics Chad!

The pics wil be at this website http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/minoca21/lst?.dir=/My+Truck&.view=t So now all of you can stop saying that I put up a lot of crap on this page. Thanx to all those people that helped with the questions. The only thing that I did wrong was put the 34" Trexus MT on it, now I wish I should have gotten the 33" because of all the trimming they had to do but it stil looks good. I Still want to put a brush gaurd on with a winch but i have been told thatthey do not make one that is chrome for my car so I might just have to wait o-well.

chad...if your looking for a winch and having clearence issues you might want to look into getting a hanson bumper...they come with tow hooks and a spot to mount a winch...don't know if you can get one in chrome but it would be just what your looking for

Chad,
The truck looks fantastic. If you don't mind, please drop in from time to time to keep us updated on the lift. Specifically, on how well it's holding up.
Thanks Chad and good luck,

Thanx 7v8, I was talking to my dad last night about also getting the 3" body lift for my truck. What do you guys think about that. Do you think that I could fit 35" on, right now I have 34" Thanx

Truck looks good Chad. A body should let you clear 35" no problem. I got a quick question for you. What kind of roll bar is that, where did you get it, and how much?
Thanks.

$700 thats a bit steep for my blood. The 9" of lift comes from a 6" suspension and a 3" body.

The alignment is good and when I first got it it popped and made some other noises put those have gone away and now it doesn't make any noise. TI rides a bit rougher but you will get that out of any lift. HEy fortWorth I will try to get you a better pic of the rear wheels. Later

You can get the Hanson Bumper Chromed since he does not finish them. You will have to get it painted or chromed locally he prefers to ship them unfinished. I looked into Chroming and Ended up having it powder coated due to cost. That was a very exspensive option and was gonna take a while for it to be done.
Never late for a Tee time or wheelin with my buddies! Always ready for both!!!Forexfour's home page.

The Truck is holding up fine and I think that I'm getting the Warn 8000i. Teh only thing is that they don't make the wrap around pieces in chrome so those will just have to come later when I save enough to get them chrome dipped.
