Looks good in a couple days let us know how it rides and handles compared to stock. What part number lift did you get?She’s finally lifted! I’m so happy with it!
Will do! As for the part number, it’s 77072395AD-01Looks good in a couple days let us know how it rides and handles compared to stock. What part number lift did you get?
Looks good are you happy with it ? Is it much harder to get in and out of? How is the ride compared to stock? Are your tires C or E rated?Finally lifted, with the 35’s mounted Still need an alignment and a part to get the spare tire on, then I should be all set (until my bank account recovers a bit)!
I spent 5 hours at the dealership for them to mount/balance the tires, fix my heated steering wheel (second trip for that), and do a wheel alignment. I walked out needing a wheel alignment (the mechanic clearly didn’t do his job right), needing a part for the spare tire because it didn’t fit, and needing another part for the steering wheel because apparently something melted due to the short in the heated steering) AND they kept my bottle of anti-seize, and didn’t put the wheel spacers on (after telling me they would).Looks good are you happy with it ?

How is the RC tailgate reinforcement and tire re-locator working for you? Would you purchase again?As was already mentioned, you will need a relocation bracket but I also recommend the reinforcement kit since you are exceeding the 85 lbs capacity of the tailgate. You can order both directly from RC:

Also, 35s on the stock wheels will probably require spacers to avoid rubbing. The stock wheels are -45 offset (too far inside the wheel well).
Good luck.
I actually never went that route. I was about to when Roam Slimline tire carrier bumper became available. I have an RC spacer lift which is great and a buddy has their folding tailgate table which he likes a lot. They make good stuff and their prices a good.How is the RC tailgate reinforcement and tire re-locator working for you? Would you purchase again?
