Hey man I know you said it is the BTF lift kit but what are the specs? 2.25 front 1.75 rear?
 






02dub
AWESOME!!! Your X looks great. I love the rims on there. What are they?
 






Since no one has ansered some of the users questions i thought id help.Im pretty sure the biggest spacer that Brandon from BTF makes is a 2.25 which overall gives you about 3 inches of lift. The set for the front and rear runs $250 if he hasnt changed his prices.
 






I ordered mine last week weekend, which it should be here today, and yes it was $250. Since I'm going to be on stock wheels, I think I'm just gonna go with the 265/75 a/t
 






Yeah its the 2.25 up front and 1.75 rear.... I measured from the ground to the center of the frame in front to the ground it it now read 14.25 inchs of clearance... im not really sure what that actual heigh was before the instal. Anyone know? plus anyone know why i cant add anymore pictures?its says im maxed out and i have like 4 up
 






On the front page of the BTF install thread Bamnq6 reported his measurement from the front cross member to the ground was 8 3/4" pre lift and around 12 1/4" after his lift, went up to 13 3/4" when he put on the 265/75's.

On my 04 Eddie Bauer, I measured almost 9 1/4" from the front cross member to the ground before any lifting, on worn out stock 245/65/17's.

Within a couple of weeks I will be doing the BTF lift, so I should be able to get the measurements after, with 265/70's.
 






That looks totally BA! Nice work!!!
 






Thanks... yeah mine with my setup right now measures 14.25
 






Nice! Dura Tracs do look great. Now you can change from 02dubs to 02thirty3s.
 






hahaha yeah i know..... i might have to do that... 02DUBS is outdated.....02X30threez sould be the new one haha
