Yes, it does.







If you ARE going to buy a lift, I'd recommend Calmini - only because of the A Arms that you get. These pictures were of my truck when it had the Calmini 2" Suspension lift, and a home made 3" Body Lift. Also, both these trucks are running 31's at the time of these pictures.

For me ... 3" was more than I wanted to go so went 2".
I also went 1" on the spacers, but probably shoulda done 2" ...

u asked for thoughts, them are mine  ;)

snofalls will the 3" lift with 1" spacers give me about the same look as yours?  31" tires.

heather are those flares just for a bazooki?  i went on jc whitney looking for flares and could not find anything for my rig.  i obviously didn't know what i was looking for.

No, they're cut to fit. They are the 2 1/4" surface mount flares. You'll need two pairs. Just stick em on the wheel wells, drill in some self-tapping screws to hold them on and give them shape, and then just trim off the excess with some scissors or a knife.

yea probably (remember you have 4dr mine is 2dr). 4dr vs. 2dr seems to yield different results when it comes to tire fitment. Had I done a 3" body lift, My fender mods woulda been less (if any).

Go Calmini on that one, and then just keep going back with the full belly armor.
