I would recommend that you get the rear Piggyback Resi-Shocks too.

whoa, lets talk about that custom nav and the custom grey piece you got. How did you make that, or where did you get, it, pics pics pics of that. i like

can that nav swivel up or out or anything?

Looks really good and clean. Your wheel/tire/lift combo is gonna look awesome.

What tint did you do on the windows? Did you just match the front or darken it all the way around?

Haha I know. I saw your truck and it helped make the decision easier. At least mine is black instead of silver.

It is the metra dash kit. Search "aftermarket nav" and you will fine tons of pics, Harper and some others even painted theirs black. I chose to keep mine silver for now. And just a Pioneer Z120bt (Absolutely awesome HU with great functions like streaming Pandora and such)


Also, I thought about the rear resi's but decided most of the weight is in the front so those shocks would need the oiled cooled if at all, and the rear would be able to handle what I throw at it.

The tint is a light tint over the rear existing tint and dark on the front two windows, and then a Limo tint strip across the top of the windshield.

Things to come: 1st Defiant light bar for a 5th Gen with 4-4" Hella HID's. Shrockwork sliders already ordered, just waiting on delivery.

Looks like it will be a sick build! Can't wait to see it finished.

Nav looks good.... it just makes the dash look a little too boring/plain IMO.

:iagree:

Even if you don't have the weight get the 2.5 remotes for the rear. They are of higher quality and made in house by ICON if I recall. Where as the 2.0 rears are made by Edelbrock, if I remember correctly.

Looks great! The aftermarket nav is really awesome!

Looking at your pics, you might need to calibrate the compass. (That little dot between your temp and compass)

[Trail Slayer]

How is Outlaw Offroad? I always see it off the 55 freeway. Are they pretty knowledgeable? I drove by one time and looked in the door and it seemed pretty small, do they own that entire building?

 

[Johnny Utah]

did you buy 5 of those nitto tires to have 1 spare? and if so, did you buy 5 wheels ? or what are you using for a spare? I was looking at your picture and just realized myself that when i buy tires/wheels i have to buy 5 not 4. Or what are people doing that buy bigger tires/rims than the stock tires/rims

 

[bigwebb83]

how much lift did you get?

I only bought 4 for now. Some guys have been able to stuff a 285 in the stock location.. I am holding out for a rear tire carrier and then I will get my spare wheel and tire.

Honestly, I didnt take measurements before and after on how much lift was gained. It sits perfect and the ride is unbelievable, so I am happy!

I posted a comment on the lift thread but ignore it, the picture probably goes better here...

can you post a picture of your cut fenders on the inside?

Thanks!

Definitely recommend Outlaw. They own that entire building, and their shop is actually pretty big. They know their stuff and are definitely the lowest prices around. I have gone to 4wheel Parts my whole life for everything truck related, and my brother has many friends there. They couldnt even come close to the prices at Outlaw.
