Sie lift is installed

[neliconcept]

I just thought Id like to share my pics with all of you as well.. setup is 2.5 inch cornfed spacers up front with OME 891 springs and n86 shocks in the rear.

www.burtmanindustries.com hooked me up

Some rake associated hopefully it will settle when I wheel it this weekend.

looking to get some 285s as well but I looked at the clearence with my 265s between the tires and upper control arms and there is maybe half an inch to an inch there and I dont know if it will work.

there yall go

i did lift front.. the rear just needs to settle some.

i did 2.5 inch spacers front. the rear is sitting at 3.2 ass high but should settle to about 2.6 or so

Are those 16 or 17" rims? Those tires look tall for a 265/75. Nice truck!

 

[neliconcept]

16 inch wheels

yeah they are prob a bit taller then most 265/75 but not much.. going to get some firestone mts soon. 285/75

ive said it before and ill say it again, please beware of rubbing when you go to 33's

trim your inner fenders and cut back the pinch weld. seal the pinch weld after you cut it though.

 

[neliconcept]

yeah im aware. I will fix all of that once the new wheels and tires come in

actually getting the setup of trd ivan stewarts with 285 goodyears. 16x8 which should eliminate most of the pinch weld and upper control arm rubbing, I'll trim the inner wheels.. rear looks fine and should be no problem with rubbing there

 

[lee]

yeah i have no rear rub

i have 305's (wider than 285s obviously) so i will eternally rub to some degree... but its best to cut as soon as possible.

install

Just wondering did you install the kit yourself? and did you have any other lift before u put that in? and if you did install it yourself, was it hard? and how long did it take?

 

[neliconcept]

didnt do it myself because I had a week to get 4 things installed, lift, locker, bumper, and sliders (still not on)

lift isnt hard. best to get some hi jack lifts, you need to discconnect swaybars for the rear, get the axle drooping as far as possible to install the coils without a compressor.

front is gonna need to be compressed to get apart. dangerous if not handled correct

no lift prior. However I have that lift now with 2 inch bodylift also and 33 inch tires,

here is what it looks like now

really all you need is somebody to help.. a spare car for part runs.. and a full day to do it yourself and computer access to ask ppl on the forums for help.

get a camera too to take pics of something that might look weird to you.

my best advice I can give
