I currently have the truck almost level with Bils at 2.1 on the front. I am going back and forth if I want to do a Zone 4" lift or not. Labor, lift, wheels and tires it looks to be about $5500.

I am considering just raising the Bils to 2.8" but not sure what to put on the back. Want to keep ride quality.

Another set of Bils? Different coil spring needed as well? Leave it alone?


Thanks!

Bils at 2.8 rear stock, run with your head held high!

When I do a lift on top of my bils I will do a Zone 6 front 5 rear and run the bils at 2"

2.1 makes most trucks about level. At 2.8 many are nose high and people put in a 1.5 " spacer in the rear. You can also change springs or replace the stock rear shocks with Bil's. Lots of options, just depending on what you're looking for. I just put Bil's all the way round and set the front at 2.1 and I'm happy with the results.

Well 2.1 looks good and it rides great. But if i want to put a Toya ATF2 that abouta 34.5 “ tire then it seems like i will need to go at least 2.8” if i do not want the tire to look stuffed. But i am not certain

On my 14, I did Bils at 2.8 initially and found to be a touch nose high. I added a 3/4” rear spacer and I’m pretty much level, it looks like I have a little rake but overall what I was looking for.

I wish I would have gone 35s, there’s plenty of room in the wheel wells without being stuffed.
