Hi guys, until how many inches of lift can be fitted without having problems with the transmission shafts? and steering?
My truks is Ram 1500 Double cab 5.7 Hemi 2010
Thanks!
Many here have successfully fitted their truck with an 11"+ of lift
This includes: 6" Suspension, 3" Body Lift and maxed Bilsteins/Pro Comp shocks
What causes problems with the transmission (struggle), steering components and stress on the front end is improper gearing and throwing on HEAVY wheels.
MT tires are heavy.
If your truck is a pavement queen, you are ok, but I would still look into gears if you have 3.55. 3.92 is ok, but still something to look into changing....just not as much of a rush to do it.
At the end of the day....its all in the gears and swapping to HD components as things begin to go.
But, like I said....MANY here run big lifts without issue.
Mines a pavement princess, on 7.5" lift (had 11"+ 4-5 months ago) and I have ZERO issues. Mind you I went from 3.55 to 4.56
Truck was a dog with 3.55 and 37's
Hope this helps
