Leveling kit & suspension lift

Can you run a 2" leveling and a 6" suspension together? If so, anyone have it? How do you like it so far? What size tire can u fit under there?

They removed portion of my Daystar when the 6" Pro Comp was installed.

I love the lift(s)!

I run 37x13.50R18 Pro Comp XTerrains but also have a 3" Body Lift!

Yep.

I like it but I think If I had to do it all over again I would have gone fabtech. Fabtech drops the front diff lower along with the rack and pinion. The cv halfshafts and the tie rod ends on my truck seem to have more of an angle which I do not like. I have seen others with the Fabtech setup and their halfshafts and tie rod ends seem more level than mine. Don't get me wrong, I am happy with my setup.

WHere did you get the body lift from? Or did u do it custom?

So you could do a 3" body, 2" coil and be cheaper then a susp. Better yet a 3" body, 2" coil & 6" susp for 11" of lift.

11" lift, 40" tires, supercharger and 5.13 lockers, that would be a sweet ride.

I got my Body Lift through Performance Accessories!

I had at one time just the Daystar 2.5 Leveling Kit and 3" Body Lift and ran 325/65R18 Nitto TG's.

Then I decided to go taller and added the 6" Pro Comp Suspension Lift in which they removed most the Leveling kit and the 6" lift really only raises the rear 4.5" and the front 6".

So I estimate 4.5" for the Pro Comp 3" Body Lift and roughly 3.5" for my 37's which adds up to about 11" total! My figures may be off but that's what I come up with!
