Hello everyone!
So as the title says.. I have my truck... but I need more POWER!!!! err wait I mean I need more LIFT!!!!! I am looking at a lift kit to add 3-6 inches of lift and new tires that will look good.
The truck will be used for hauling my ATV in the back, interstate driving to/from work and family vacations.
Truck Details:
Color: Patriot Blue
Interior: Grey Cloth
Year 2007
Model: 4-Door ST Big Horn
Engine 4.7L Magnum
Drive: 4x4
Being driven in Indiana weather (snow, rain, ice, heat, humidity)
Needs:
Lift Needs to Improve Stock Ride Quality
Tires need to be able to handle interstate driving both in rain/snow as well as have good tire life. Truck will be offroad some.
Would like some better handling/control. Currently when driving interstate if I hit some bumps or a hole I feel the truck bounce/shift almost as if a slight hydroplane. Not really sure how to describe it other than that.
Looking around I have found tons of tires and lift kits, but want to hear from people who have them and their comments to help make a good choice for tire/lift combination to get the the aggressive offroad look I want while maintaining or improving the ride quality.
In the end I would like an overall 4-6+ inch lift, wide tires that stick out from the truck maybe 1-2 inches giving it a nice offroad/aggressive stance and improve ride quality/handling.
Any help, suggestions or slaps in the face where appropriate are welcome.
