Its a Rough Country 4 inch lift with adjustable lift shackles, they are set at one inch of lift, so about 5 inches of total lift. If I had stock shackles the shackle angle 'might' be better but the leafs are just too short. I hear bad things about how Rough Country springs ride, but my stock springs were so worn that my shackles were laid up against the frame. So to me, it rides great compared to before. Getting ready to either run some 33x15.50's or 35x12.50's depends on who is a more motivated seller...

I had 35x15.50 TSL SX's on it before....

hey, Name is Sean just picked up an 84! She needs a little TLC in the body area as the truck has little spots of rust poking out of the paint in various locations. It also has the famed gear pop-out issue, gotta MC shifter seat + socket should be arriving soon for the fix (hopefully).

Looks very similar to mine. Good choice. Have fun fixing it up.
