so im getting tired or putting money in the truck to go faster, its like a never ending thing...so im thinking about lifting my truck...i went against everything i've ever known by actually lowering this one haha well i guess my style hasn't changed and its time to go up in the air! well here is a pic of the truck as it sits now except for the fender flares and step bars are off the truck....how do ya'll think it would look with some 36 or 37's under it?? post up any pics of some lb7 chevy's thats lifted!! :thumb

i lifted my truck up on oct 29 2011, it was lowered back down nov 5 2011 when i returned from sema, my 12 sec 100mph cruiser turned into a bulky turd and i couldnt take it! i think ur truck looks good.. if i was gonna lift somethin i would do it like factry 286s truck, 4.5 lift on 35s looks good :thumb:

I think the truck looks good lowered. The wheels, tires, lights, stance...it all fits.

This is what i tried to tell him lol, it looks great the way it is. My buddy had an 04 dmax on 40s and there is no way id want to drive that everyday. Factory height or slightly lowered where the tires fill up the fender wells look great.

I had the same stance you had and now mine is lifted. I really like the lift I hunt and and go off road so the lowered thing wasn't working.

your back yard
Lowered > lifted

UNLESS... You plan on Ravaging through the woods and beating it to hell. But your truck is nice. Don't. Do. That.

Why don't you just go back to stock height, or small lift big wheels?

Here is my truck with a 2" drop in the rear and front bumper mod.
Cleared 35's with no problem.
Truck is lowered now and doesn't look like this anymore.
