Spacer lift with 5100's ??

[Cwarner272]

I've got a 3" rough country lift/level kit, but its still 1/2" higher in the rear. I'm wondering if I can run the bilstein 5100's along with the spacer? Just want to get like another 1/2"-1" in the front

I got a feeling this might be a stupid question, so please keep the insults to a minimum lol

I mean you could go a 1/2 inch lift but that's about it and I wouldn't recommended it in the first place

 

[Cwarner272]

Yeah the upper control arm looks to be pretty tweaked as it is lol. My other option would be to drop the rear from a 2" block to 1.5" but I wanna go higher not lower lol

Ha yeah it defiantly wouldn't be good for your ball joints either

 

[Cwarner272]

I Appreciate the help

Your welcome man, if you want more lift in the front just put about 100psi in the front tires and 5 psi in the back that should level it out

Time for a drop bracket lift if you want to go higher.

 

[Cwarner272]

How does that work? You'll have to excuse me, I'm pretty new to all of this

 

[whippersnapper02]

Are you 2wd or 4wd? I always forget about the spindle lift option for prerunners.

A drop bracket lift lowers the suspension to lift the truck.

4x4 trd double cab

 

[whippersnapper02]

Yup. Drop bracket time. RCD, Fabtech or Pro Comp. Drop bracket lifts reduce ground clearance.

 

[Cwarner272]

Sounds expensive

 

[whippersnapper02]

Gotta pay to play.:thumbsup:

 

[Cwarner272]

That's true. Gotta come up with some more money. I've only had the truck for a month, and I've done the lift, new wheels, and new tires. Might be little short for rent lol
