I'm really thinking about a 4 inch lift with 35x12.5x20 nitto trail grapplers. I'm gonna level out the front will bilsteins. I'd appreciate it if you guys could post your truck with a 4 inch lift with 35's. I'm looking at zone right now. What are some other kits that are good for the 4th gens? Keeping it around $1500. Thanks:)

There isnt much difference in price between a 4" and a 6". IMO Go with a 6" or you will wish you did later. It looks so much more beefy.

Is it hard to get in with a 6 inch? I'm 5'11 but most of my friends are shorter including my parents. I want a 6 for clearance offroad but I'm just afraid my parents won't be able to get in without a ladder

It is high to get in without running boards/steps yes. I would say not a whole lot of difference between the 4" and 6" obviously. You can grab the handle on the frame of the door and pull yourself in. Remember its your truck!! You could always put running boards or steps on. IMO I dont like the way they look.

Haha I believe I have the Mopar black running boards on it right now. For me it's pretty easy to get in. However I do like the look of the 6 inch alot better. The wheel wells look too stuffed with a 4. Do you like your zone? I'm still looking around and alot of these lifts are around the 1600 mark. Are there any real differences?

I love the zone 6" lift. You really cant go wrong. For just a little more money you get an upgraded lift compared to the RCX. There are more components for the rear. You also have two options for the back depending on rake. 3" and 5" I believe it should be around the same price. I dont really like a squatty look so I went with 5" in the back.

Nice truck steveo. I'm looking for that same look. For the money I think I'll go the 6 inch route just for a little more tire room. RamEd, I have the same running boards as him lol

wouldn't 35's look tiny with a 6 inch? I really don't want to cough up $500 for one tire lol. But if it looks okay I'd get the 6 inch and 35s

Thanks man. I love the 4" cuz I can still park in my garage. I have just under 1" clearance haha. And my wife is short so she can get in just a little bit easier

So 35s will look ok with the 6? Opinions? I think that set up is growing fast on me

I think a 6" on 35s would look good! And it would keep ur tire cost way down! What gear ratio and tranny do u have. Because that has a lot to do with it too.

How would this compare to a 2wd on a 7" lift? About the same height?

You would probably be a little taller because that's a lot of lift! With 4x2 you would probably be closer to a 6" lift. Mines just a 4"

Also remember that much lift with 35s is going to have more of a wheel gap. So that's something u have to think about too.

I like the gap with 35s thankfully. More room for that flex;) I have 3.92s and a 5 speed and I didn't plan on regearing so 35's it is. I've never put new tires or rims on a truck so what do i do about the tpm? If I buy a wheel/ture package online how do I put my existing tpm in the new tires??

A 7" on a 2wd will clear 37's so it would be higher than a 4" it's about the same as a 6" on a 4wd. My 4.5" spindle and 3" coils on 35's sits about the same as my friends 4" ram with the Mopar Kit. His front it a little higher now he added the Bilsteins though. His 4" looks great with the 35's. My other friend had a 6" lift on his ram I think it was a Fabtech on 35x13.5's on 20x10 with a -24 offset so it looked good with his lift. Was a nice setup.
