Post by: fitz on April 12, 2009, 10:14:25 pm: I think a 14.5" wide tire might be cutting it close with a 4" lift.
Heres the set up I'm running.
Tires: BFG 35x12.50R16.5
rear springs: Rough Country #6200 (Catologe says 4")
fronts springs: RS 586206 A (Catologe Says 2.5" soft ride)
I mixed and matched (or missmatched) parts to come up with this set up. I ended up trying 3 sets of front springs to try to level out the truck. I tried 2 different sets of 4" front sprigs but it still sat higher in the rear. Finally went with Rancho soft ride fronts springs with a custom shackle to level it out. (I was trying to work with parts)
