Front lift

[oldsparky]

I see there are a couple options and several manufactures that make a lift for a 1500 4x4. Reading on the internet and looking at various forums I find someone complaining about every option. Vibration, shaking, failing front end parts. Is there a fail safe method? I don’t need my truck perfectly level but as it is its about 4” rake.

4”? That seems way extreme. What are your measurements on level ground from ground to top of wheelwell?

These are my measurements before Left Rear 39" Right Rear 39 3/8" the front is Left Front 36 5/8" Right Front 37" that was a difference of 2 3/8" stock. After I installed the TT1223 Right rear 41 1/4" Left Rear 40 7/8" now the front to rear difference is 4 1/4"

Look at the eibach shock/strut setup with the optional front coils. You the coils come longer so at the lowest setting is about 2.25" of lift and you can adjust them to about 3-3.5 to retain the rake you want contact nick@gotexhaust and he can help you out

Oh. I’m sorry. Didn’t realize you had TufTruck springs installed. Tapatalk doesn’t show signatures so my fault if it’s listed there and I didn’t know it.

I think you may have an issue with your tt1223 install?
The bed of your truck is 36 5/8” on the drivers side and 41 1/4” on the passenger side
Did you use the tuff truck ttc-1223 do you have a work body on your truck?

That makes a Lot more sense
I also recommend looking at the eibach pro truck kit. Be forewarned the eibach struts work with oem front coil springs and also their pro truck coils. With both coils the measurements are different. For example the first notch with oem spring remains stock height with the eibach spring the first notch is
2 3/4” lift
