There isn't any rubbing and I didn't have to do fender liner mod, cutting or anything else to make them fit.

I think the truck now sits perfect for an everyday vehicle, looks much more aggressive than stock, and also gives me a bit better clearance/approach angles for when I'm out on the dirt.

There is absolutely no change in ride quality, body lean, etc. from the stock setup which was a concern of mine since I really do like how it drives stock. It's a tiny bit bumpier (I'm sure because they are now LT tires) but it's so minimal that it doesn't really make a difference. If you're on the fence about what to do, I think this is a great option.

For anyone else that wants a 1.5/1 on the Pro, you can go here and just choose the 2/1 kit, and in the notes box on last stage of checkout, say you have a pro and want a 1.5/1 and we will custom make it, or call/text to order 717-319-2100

I was able to perform a self install in my garage with ease. The first thing I did after install was to take a test drive and check the ride quality. Honestly, I am not able to tell any difference from the stock ride. Very glad I chose the 2/1 and super pleased with the install and ride.

We'll never know....
