Went ahead and pulled the trigger on a 6 inch bds with 5 inch coils bills and a zone 1.5 body lift 20x12 fule mavas and 37x12.5 nitto trail grapplers. I'll be installing everything myself hopefully by the end of the month. Any advice or input form other that have installed the kits them self? Also input on bils being set at 2.1 or 2.8. I know lvl is 2.1 but will I need the extra clearance for the tires or will 2.1 be enough.

Subscribed for the info.

I hope you take tons of pictures and include some step by step verbage especially on the front differential drop and lift components installation.

I'm planning on installing a 6" BDS on my 14 , 1500 next summer .

2.1 should have plenty of clearance on the 6" lift. Unless you're going with a big offset, it might be close.

This is going to be a sweet looking setup. I'm excited to see the results. Loved my Trail Grapplers.

Worst part is getting to front diff mounting bolts. Rest is easy. Well worth the effort when you step back and look at what you accomplished. Good luck [emoji106]

I'll second the diff bolts up top. I have a handy dandy pass through rachet set though and it made it super easy. I busted two cut off wheels getting the cut for that lower control arm mount.
