Icon 4.5" Lift installed (pics)

[BADASS03SVT]

this is my first 4x4 truck. had a couple 2wd Dodges back in the day. I looked at pictures upon pictures of lifted trucks and with what I use the truck for (daily, towing race car), figured the 4.5" was the one for me. I had a 2" leveling kit in it and figured it wouldnt be much more but HOLY COW. online pics CANNOT show you how high the truck actually is!! my truck is HUUUUGE. I LOVE it it just kind of surprsied me how big it actually was. I also opted for a 1" bigger block out back for a slight rake and to keep the truck level when towing. Going to grab the AMP steps before the wheel/tires because those will bring it up another inch or so and the floor of the truck is up to my gf's stomach...LOL

2.5" blocks installed and leveling kit up front

Looking good, I was thinking you had to chisel out the rivets on the radius arm brackets, but I guess not. Gonna look just that much better when the rims/tires get on there too, the stockers don't look to out of place but the truck will be sweet when the new rubber arrives.

Height looks perfect too, I am 5'11" and I figured for me getting the window sill just below eye level is just right for a truck.

Very nice, The Icon stuff really looks like it is well thought out. Their primary bracket seems to be the beefiest I see for our trucks. Is the steering all sorted out? How is it driving with the stabilizers on there?
