From lowered to lifted 2wd

[buddyrow88]

Hey guys I got a 2012 express. Currently have a 2/4 bell tech drop with srt10 22s. Even though its only 2wd I'm wanting to lift it. Always had lowered trucks this would be my first lifted. Not sure how this would go but I'm wanting to do the 7" cst lift with 35x14.50 22s would this scrub being so wide I wanting to do a 14" fuel hostage rim. Any help would be appreciated going to take some time to get the cash but I photoshopped my truck to what I want it to look like

The way my truck looks now. New to using the site not sure how to upload multiple pictures?

That's wide. it may rub, but I say go for it and if it does a body lift will take care of that problem!

 

[buddyrow88]

Yeah I'm thinking the tire/rim combo in the pic might be a 12" rim I couldn't find any info on the truck I got it from. Just put my truck body over a scsb silverado lol

Haha i thought it kinda looked like one of those cen-cal style Chevys with a FTS lift. So are you trying to go for the stretched tire look? I know that a 325/50r22 will work on cts 7 with 22x11 -44. and that's a really wide stance too

You will rub a lot you'd need a 3" body that's a wide set up would look great though I like can cal style and love the CST lift I'd recommend it mines been great

Hmmm... I don't know about this. You'll have to have the rims widened by an aftermarket company. Spendy stuff!

I think a 7" lift would look great.
I don't care for the big wheel stretched mudder look m'self.

Something to remember, ...the CST will push your FRONT wheels out 1.5 inch, so that works in there too...I say put on the CST and come on up !!!!!!

thats one sexy truck!

Is there any 2wd spindles that do not push the front wheels out? I am working on getting my 2wd lift parts together . Will post a build thread soon.....

Okay so will a 20x12 wheel with a -12 offset fit my ram with a 2 inch level and a 3 inch body lift?

 

[BULLRAM]

White hemi..The answer is no, they all push out the front wheels, so spacers are needed for the rear ,if you want it to look the same, I have seen people leave the front wheels sticking out further than the rear, and it not bothering them, just a choice I guess?
