Maxtrac 7 inch lift installed

Grey dodge · Jan 14, 2017

Well got around to installing my kit this week since i was off.
Even though i tried to have everything before i started,i still had to get a couple things during the install.
The front was a bit challenging for the life of me i had a hard time getting the driver side spring in.
Passenger side was not as bad,and the rear was not bad at all.
Got to say this is a 2 man job.
Well here are the pics

Looks good. You definitely need 37's on that one. Why does the front look high.

wheels i want

Grey dodge · Jan 14, 2017

Two things i need help with i want to get 37x12.50x20 tires i need some help choosing a good a/t tire that does good in rain and good tread wear.
Also the spindle pushed my front tires out, and now i want a 1 inch spacer for the rear.
i dont like the spacers i see online ,i want one like i had on my mustang where you add longer studs so you can mount the tire to axle not the spacer.
That makes me nerves. does anybody know where i can get them from .
Thanks for the help.

Can't tell with the pick on the driveway, do you have a CA lean? If so I would take it out, the truck is very nice.

Yes I do. Driveway is uneven.

Im all about the toyo at2s but i avoid bfgoodrich all terrains from experience i heard they changed though. Terra grapplers wear quick to me also. But again this is all on a 3/4 ton.

Toyo A/T all day long I just went through a snow/ice storm and they were barely phased by it

Trucks looks great! Always good to see another 4th gen regular cab with a lift!

Welcome to the club. I used a 7 inch max tracks as well with fuel cleavers 20x12 and toyo RT 35x12.5 the RT toyos are a hybrid between the MT and the ATs check them out nice tires.

I have the 7" maxtrac lift on my Ram as well. Get the extra 1 1/2" blocks for the rear to help even it out a little more. You'll only be 1/2" higher in the front after instead of the 2" you are now. Also, not quite sure if you'll be able to fit 37's. I have 35/12.5R20 on mine and I'm really close to the fender when turning. You can probably get away with 36's, but it would be cutting it close. Look at Atturo Trail Blade X/T tires. Low priced, last longer than other "name brand" tires, and look great! The X/T's are a mud tire look built like an all terrain. I have almost 10k miles on mine already and they still look like the day I put them on. Other than that, looks good!

Looks good man, i'm wanting to do the same kit soon. Whenever the funds are available i will be doing this. Is it hard to do without a shop lift?

Same lift here on 35s. Swapping out the 1.5 rear spacer for 2.5 this weekend to get 1/2" rake

So you made the rear end a 5.5 lift? hoe does it ride and drive? i was told that the drop bracket are only good for 4.5 rear lift after that the angles are no good.
