I just did a search online for a 10 inch lift kit. And all that came up was everything up to 6 inch.

Keldermann had an air ride system, but i don't want air.

Does anyone here know of a website where I can find a 10 inch lift kit?

Looking for a new mod for the summer. I want to throw 37's, 38's or maybe even 40's onto the MegaCab.

Kelderman makes a nice kit, Like everybody has said a 6" + 3" will get you what you want, just make sure your wheel offset gets you some stability.

Not realistically. Sure, he could STUFF 37's on stock height & wheels but I don't think he wants that. It actually looks goofy. Plus you are going to scrub with any aftermarket wheel.

You do know the 2500 is 3" taller stock than a 1500 ... I had 37's on ...you can fit them with no lift .. thats all I was saying .. now for me I went 6" and back to 35's because I need total flex . But if you just drive on the hard roads then ya 37's no lift is fine .

I know, I have seen it done, I am just saying I wouldn't do it. The 8" Rize kit is made for 40's.

The 35x13.50's on my Megapig seemed pretty big even with the 2" level. Those tires scrubbed like crazy when turning on the inside (stock wheels) and if they were 37's w/ my aftermarket wheels it would have scrubbed the fender. I'm just saying for optimal 37" tire performance, I would do at least 3", especially when this guy was wanting 10. Lol but I think we are saying the same thing. :)

13.50 is why they rubbed ... thats to dam much IMO 12.50 with fender flares fills out nice .
Im not one for tires that stick out past the wells .

Anywho...sorry for the thread jack.

OP, as well as the 8" Rize I found a 10" Whiplash.

Well here's the thing, On paper my Mega is a 1500. Technically as we all know it is a 2500.

I currently have a 6" lift with 35x12.5x20's on there now. And with these, I rubbed when turned full left or right. Eventually, it rubbed itself out. (Ha, no blisters either)

I will definitely rub and scrub big time with 37's. I will rub the inside of the fender flare, and the bottom fascia of the bumper. I may also rub the arms on the inside of the wheel. That is the problem I have with going to a bigger tire.

Do you think a 3" body lift is the way to go? The price is an issue. I don't have $2500+ for a new suspension kit. I want to do at least 37's or 38's. 40's would be a plus, but just shooting for 37 or 38.

If you are scrubbing, it's because of the backspace on your wheels. With the proper wheels you could fit a 37" tire easily with the lift you have. Of course a body lift is the cheapest route, and 3" should give you plenty of space for 37's or 38's.

She was cool, that's for sure. I love driving my new truck but of course I'll always have a soft spot for the Mega.
