i didn't measure before and after (i know, i'm lame), but roughly 3 inches of lift. when i did the front suspension i also replaced the rear shocks with OME Nitrochargers, which helped significantly. without those, there's no way i could have driven on the old leafs for so long.

i'd like to get a replacement high-clearance rear bumper, so i probably won't mess around too much with the stock bumper. here's a link and a picture of the bumper i'm looking at: http://www.ttora.com/forum/showthrea...t=point+return

thanks! i have the opinion that any proper pickup truck should have a good set of leaf springs in the rear. these new ones ride REALLY nice, hold weight better, and give the truck a more solid feel. huuuuge improvement over stock.
