2.5" maxtrac installed. gained 6 ounces easy

[Ram_Fish1]

Wanted to post some before and after pics of my 2.5" max trac, did the install myself wasn't bad at all. no ride issues, ran in 4hi up to 75 mph and had zero vibration. totally happy with the kit. provided exactly 2.5" from original height.. finished product had about 6 ounces of lift based on my measuring system. I now have plenty of clearance to rest my beer on the wheel while doing other mods...

[Ram_Fish1]

You would have preferred 4Lo..

Man I just don't know, I really want to go 35's, but I really hate to lose 4-5 mpg, based on some of the posts I've read on here..
"2014stormtrooper" is the one that got me hooked on needing those.. after I saw his before and after pics with 35x12.5x20, but i'm definitely not going full MT's like he did, spend too much time on the highway..
been scanning posted pics, cant decide, leaning towards nitto terra grapplers,
tips or suggestions appreciated and accepted

Toyo open country rt.. Cool aggressive sidewall but still a all terrain for your highway drive.

I'm running 35/12.5/20 MT's on 20x12's and lost maybe .5 MPG I've ran through 2 tanks with the setup and still getting 13-14 MPG which is what I got stock

13-14 Mpg stock,good lawd do you drive everywhere @ wot.I get 20mpg @ times & no less then 18 in my loaded cc sport 4x4.

I guess it's either snowing or he's not knowing.I could see 75 in awd but 75 on dry roads in 4wd,either hi or lo is a no no.

I've got this level coming my way & I'll be combining it with a 3" PA body lift,fuel 20x10"deep dish & 35x12.5r20's soon.
It definitely will not be a mud bogger but it'll sure as hell look good & be more useful then it was when i got it.I don't see myself getting 12 mpgs either lol.

Nope but it's a mix of traffic and freeway. Day one never got better then 14mpg average. If I drive to Cali and set cruise for 4 hrs I can hit 16mpg

Mines an 8 speed,that's probably why it's getting better mpgs then yours.I just hope i don't lose alot with the lift.I'm going to chose my tires wisely as that's where the bulk of the loss is coming from.

Truck looks alot better

Toyo AT2?
I have always been a BFG guy and was considering the KOs, but they're so heavy. The Toyo (i went with stock size) are only a bit heavier than stock.

I run 4wd all winter, regularly hit 75 on the highway, never had an issue.

I wouldn't do 75 in 4wd.. snowing or not.. unless I was on a frozen lake where spinning out would be enjoyed.. even then I would only have it in 2wd!

Whats the problem with it?

 

[blazenlo]

Nice job on the lift!

For everyone ******** about how he uses his truck...Did I miss a separate thread where you guys were paying/paid for his truck?

If opinions weren't needed, would there be a point for any threads? Show me anything that says to run a vehicle in 4wd at 75mph.
