RCX 6 inch and bilsteins

[Shawn226]

So as most of you know, the new RCX lift utilizes coil spacers in the rear. For me to put bilsteins on the from to level it, I'm assuming I wouldn't be able to do the full 2 inch increase, as I can't level out the rear? Can anyone clear this up for me on what all I'd have to do?

Just replace the stock rear springs with 2" lift springs...or a bottom mount spacer

It's probably not going to be for a bit, paying off train horns and wheels and tires still. Anyone ever hear of maxtrac?

Yep Im rocking maxtrac spindles, only for 2wd trucks though. Badass customer service and top quality products

So their rear coils are only for 2wd?

No just the spindles, rear coils work on 4wd/2wd as the rear suspension is the same.

Keep in mind adding 2" in the rear will have your shock stroke length shortened and your axle will not be properly centered. Others dont mind this, but im OCD

But if that's placed with bilsteins it'll level it back out correct?

If you mean Bilsteins in the front, that doesnt matter. The front will be fine.

For the rear, you would need longer shocks and an adjustable track bar, or longer track bar bracket.

Plenty of people have ran your proposed setup without problems, but consider these 2 things if you notice a harsher ride and see that your axle is not centered under the chassis.
