Awesome job guy! The handling isn't going to be different at all. If you feel top heavy...add some wheel spacers and it should take care of it.

Looks good. Did you run a brace to each set of brackets to help them from pivoting?

ha ha ....oh well atleast you tried. If you go with a lift try the perfex longarm travel kit, your ride will soooo much better!I just bought my 1-1/2" wheel spacers so that will be my next and probably one of the last things I do to mine with the exception of some tunes....but try that liftkit you'll be happy!
