re: What size lift kit for a Chevy Colorado?

Not bad. I didn't do it only because I was on crutches with a cast/boot on both my legs at the time. So I asked my dad to help me and he surprised me did it all for me while I was at school that day. If you have or know someone with big wrenches and sockets it ain't bad, I just bought a cheap spacer kit. Didn't even use a torque wrench, just a cheater bar and guesstimation math.
3" ended up being too much, it was on a backwards angle, so I made 1.5" rear lift blocks out of 1/2" plate steel.
Lift was $70. The alignment ended up being $180

I'm due for some new tires, so I'm hoping I can get it done in the next couple of weeks so I can get the tires and alignment done at once.
I guess I need to call downshift. He could probably hook me up.

Yea I know he could do it.
I've been needing to hit him up to go tune my bow but I just had to bring it back yesterday to get the peep and d loop retied. Hoping to sight it in at least at 15 this afternoon

While we're on this thread, who knows about leveling a truck? I'm considering doing this to mines.
What do you drive? If your truck has coilovers I highly recommend Bilstein 5100 series shocks. They have a snap ring that lets you adjust the height of the spring seat. I have them on my Tacoma and its the best riding lifted truck I've ever been in. Its actually better than the stock ride. I set mine at 1.75 inches of lift and ended up right at 2 inches.

I think he's still working two jobs. He actually gets more free time when he's in school.
Not sure when his internship is done. Should be soon though.

I've been pretty damn busy lately too. I should have more free time in another few weeks or so. About to go shoot my bow in a bit
