Alright here is my 2022 XLT with FX4 and 4K tow, so far I’ve installed rokblok mud flaps, a Thule storage rack that typically had a cargo carrier on it and my ski holders (cargo carrier has been removed currently) and flat out gr lite suspension set at 2 inches of lift!

I have Boomba racing TB spacer and IM spacer to install as well on my next oil change which should be coming up soon here!

This GRLite is the suspension I will likely be getting, however I will try waiting as long as I can resist because technically it's got a brand new suspension already, from the factory. It looks great, but in your picks it looks like you maintained the rake; I'm thinking my preference would be to set the rear a bit lower to level it. I came across 4 almost new KO2's in the small 225/65/17 size for very cheap, so they're quite heavy tires but don't seem to have impacted my mileage at all in the factory dimensions. Anyways, yeah the small tires I think look a bit awkward with so much clearance in the rear wheel well. But your fronts look perfect! Be interested to hear your thoughts on ride quality and any impact on the cv joints or other components over time. Enjoy.

Yea I plan to put bigger tires on when these ones wear out, the ride quality has honestly not changed at all, the rake is slightly closer to levelled I think it’s a quarter inch closer than factory, but yea it still handles like an SUV no issues whatsoever

I recently picked up a small tear drop trailer for road trips and weekend get aways, and I must say loaded with gear and dogs and people and the trailer on with the flat out suspension with the overload springs I am very impressed with the performance, no issues towing no issues with handling and almost no squat loaded up!

My ARE MX series topper came in and is installed, I got two LED light strips connected to the door so when the door opens the lights come on! Really looking forward to this upgrade and not having to tarp my stuff down in the box on long road trips where there may be rain, and the added security of being able to lock my stuff in for wandering eyes and hands! Really loving the look as well
