Lift Kits?

[JGstarted22]

Sooooooooooooo whats? I was wondering if anyone has any feedback on "Sonoran Steel Fabrication" i've been lookin for a few months now to try and find a package that was worth a D@mn and they look pretty good. And i curious how it would work with some Emu leafs. But yea anything about them would be much appreciated . :biggrin2:

your planning on converting to leaf springs?

 

[JGstarted22]

??????

yea but i don't exactly know how much i would have to do for the conversion?

 

[sn0wrunner]

I dont think anyone on here has done it... I could be wrong. If you want more info on that or SAS check out THIS

If I were you I'd look into getting some Land cruiser 80 series front springs, to use as your rear springs.

So what about Sonoran Steel Fab?Its seems like all i read about is fabtek and all other kits are just spacers or just really generic. It does seem pricey but worth it to go with sonoran. But yea anything would help thanx

 

[sn0wrunner]

yeah sonoran steel is great. There is a lot of members on here who have his lifts on their rigs. Also check out toytec

Sonoran Steel makes a really good lift. You won't regret it.

Thanx alot that site is pretty sweet. but if i am gonna try to go with 33s is a 3in kit gonna be enough and which would be a better route to go if i needed an extra inch or so body lift or spacers? :bouncy:

 

[Clemsonfan15]

Probably body lift.

Are you looking to go with 285's? If so then you need a 3" lift minimum.

 

[sn0wrunner]

Clemsonfan15 is correct. You will need a 3" lift to run 33's (285's) If you want to fit 35's on there you will need to add at least 1.5" Body lift to that and do some trimming. I got my body lift from 4crawler

I wouldnt recommend going any bigger than 2" for the body lift though.

 

[JGstarted22]

Yea definitely at least 3in and 285s and 33s are the same right i never really understood the difference.

 

[JGstarted22]

Sweet you guys awesome. sorry if you haven't got my name i'm "just getting started" so i just can't wait to get my baby off-road :dancin:

 

[Clemsonfan15]

285 really refers to how wide the tire is.

285/70/16 will be 32" depending on tire and 285/75/16 will be 33" depending on tire also.
