Lifted 2wds

[rennaissanceman]

I could use that notch, I'm not even lifted and my best bet of making a 2 lane U-turn involves either drifting or running over the curb

Might be, who knows. I know mines decreased. He said he did have pictures that he just grinded a little bit at a time.

What are the specs on your lift? Looks really good.

New guy, Can I put 18 inch rims with 35" tires under a 03' ram 2x4 with a 3" lift without it rubbing?

 

[ramin44s]

probably not depends on the wheels offsett and backspacing, probably would be better with 6'' and 35s. what type of lift are you talking about suspension, body ?

 

[Mcknigha]

Suspension lift with a 19mm offset on the wheels. I'm trying to do a 3" in the front and 1.5" in the back.

 

[ramin44s]

its a spindle lift then im assuming, you can run that spindle and get a 2.5 or 2'' spacer for cheap (150) and have 5 close to 6'' lift and fit 35s easy 3'' alone will be cutting it close,

 

[ramin44s]

also check the lift manufactures recommended offset for wheels some spindles lifts require a more negative offsett to keep the wheels and spindles hitting

 

[Mcknigha]

What I'm looking at is the 3" spring and shock lift kit from rough country. It's not too much more then the spacer's.
Dodge Suspension Lift Kits

 

[ramin44s]

you can run those and get a 3'' spindle and be alright

 

[Mcknigha]

This would lift my truck 6" right? I'm really trying to do my lift in stages cuz of $$. I was thinking do the RC lift with 34's, then do the spindle's with 35's when the 34's wear out.

 

[ramin44s]

You can probably get away with that with no trimming

RC sells the 3 inch lift springs. But those dont work with their 6 inch kit. The 6 inch kit lifts you six inches but also drops the crossmember to retain stock measurements, stress, distance, yada yada, with the lift.

Oh true, ive never really looked into the 6 inch kits

 

[Oefootball_70]

Best part about RC and Fabtecs lifts are that you can stack a coil spacer up to 3 inches and its just like a factory suspension with a spacer. So you can run the 9 inch suspension lift no problem.

 

[TexasRammer]

So really the cross member drops arent necessary
