I just started to work on my rig today! It is up 5 feet in the back to the bottom of my bumper and the front is about 3 feet for now. I unbolted the front dana 60 and rolled it out on my heavy duty wagon from home depot, and next is to finish jacking up the front to 5 feet too and then drop the rear dana 60. From there i'll try to get those 2000 pound per axle and tire combo over to my truck (about 100 feet) and push them under it with my snowplow, from there I can try to figure out how much spring hanger and block sizes i'll need. Its a pain working on this on a gravel driveway but i'll do it...

Good luck, that is one hell of a project. I think the amount of springs and hangers you will need can be summed up in one word...alot. Look in off-topic, there is a diesel with 23" of lift, over 44's, but I don't think there is near enough room for 60's. I wish you all the luck when it's finished it will be a true monster truck. Thumbs Up!

I am With Stupid With all these guys. Doesn't look the safest. You really get under the truck while it sits like that??

When it falls I'll take it since the 03 is already taken.
