Default 05 silverado going up!

i am hopefully going to add a fabtech 6" lift to my ride along with 35" Toyo M/T! Has anyone kept the ford keys in their trucks after the lift? Also, is it uncommon to take out a small loan to pay for your lifts? or is that a sign i am an addict when it comes to my truck?

as much as I would love to see your truck lifted, I dont think you should get a loan to get it done .... You're going to end up paying way more than if you just waited until you save up the cash..... I would imagine that those tires would cause you to lose a couple mpg, so you would waste more for gas AND have to make payments on the loan.....

....... But then again, that mod itch really makes you want to scratch, doesn't it? LOL......

I would have to agree. Take your time and save your money and usually by the time you have saved your money you have had time to think out exactly what you want and usually someone has alreaady made something better. Good luck!!!
