What do you guys think of the Bilsteins set at max 2.8 with the 1.25" Rough Country body lift? I want to put 35s on. Will I need any wheel spacers (1/4")?? I have a 2012 big horn quad cab.

Any help/guidance would be appreciated. Photos would definitely help. Thanks

Thats a nice set-up for your truck for sure!! :rocking: When you order the bodylift from Rough Country make sure you get the wheel spacers. your gonna need them to run 35's on stock wheels. Post pics when your done!

You might want to get a rear leveling kit too. Depending on your stock rake, the bilsteins at 2.8 might make the front end higher, but you might also like the west coast rake look so its up to you.

DisturbedGator, your truck looks great. Do you have 35" tires on? They don't look stuffed from a side view, right?
