At the time of picture...
No Lift.
BW Flat Flares
15x10 Cragars w/ 3.75" BS
33x12.50-15 GY Duratracs
In case it isn't apparent, the front right tire is parked on a cynder block under the leaves, the rear drivers side tire is NOT touching the fender flare but it is close. I don't know why but I didn't take any pictures of it on level ground and I have since then installed the 2" front coil spacers and I will be installing new HD rear springs with my clayton shackles sometime between tomorrow and sunday.

As promised... Stock height with fresh 225/75-16s. You can see why I'm looking at new springs.
