can i adjust the lift with the set up on the truck?

 

No you adjust them when you install them and you could even pick up some bilstein 5150's for the rear and a 5.5" pro comp rear block and an aal (to make the rear sit level with the front) and still won't cost as much as coilovers

 

i have 2" procomp AAL's to lift the rear once i take care of the front already. But my problem was i cant get the upper ball joint into the knuckle once i had the 2: AS spacer on there. so wouldnt the bilsteins be the samee?

 

No you'll be able to connect them, tonkatruck33, and impact9 have this set-up and I will soon be adding more lift to my truck as well (already have 5100's). Should be fine . Oh and the 5.5" rear block is to get rid of the stacked ones, plus you won't sit level with just an AAL with 2 more inches of lift in the front, gonna need that 5.5"

 

alright, thanks man. i appreciate it. im going to see what kind of pricing i can get on the procomp coilovers because the place i got this lift from seems to be hookin me up pretty good so ill see what the price difference is.

but thanks man

 

Looks very tough. I'm looking to replace my Mazzi hulks with a new set, the chrome is scratched to bits from the mud.

 

Clifford thats a badass truck, I love the 6.5 bed. Oh and by not this weekend but the following I should have some pics up of the 6.5 bed with a 6 inch lift. Not many pics of those around and I can't wait. Yours looks awesome though!

Yours too eff one fifty!

 

I've read that the Ranch hand front bumper replacement weighs enough to create a little sag in the front, So I'm thinking that after I install my stage one and the bumper my truck should have a close to stock stance. I'm waiting to see afterwards if I need the AAL and a new block (which probably needs replaced anyway to avoid double stacking them). But the bilstiens are a must a ways down the road. I'm sure I'll be asking you lots of questions fx4silver on that subject lol, you've already answered almost every question I've had on here. I really appreciate your help.

 

Clifford4x4, do you have any more pics of your truck?

 

How are you trying to get the a-arm connected... Just pushing down on it by hand and trying to get the nut on?

This is going to be hard to describe... But you need to take a floor jack and put it under the lower a-arm to hold it in place (so the suspension doesn't move down when you push) Then take a long pry bar and stick it through the upper a arm and push/pry down till the ball joint "seats". Then put the nut on.

Hope that made sense... I've done a few of these lifts and that always works like a charm!

 

alright cool man, yeah i put a floor jack under the lower A-arm so the coil was compressed then i basically had my buddy hold the nut and the knuckle almost aligned with the ball joint then i crouched up in the wheel well and pushed the upper arm down as much as i could, i was seriouls like 1/2"-1/4" off before i could get the nut started we tried like 15 times haha. So just said forget it and decided to not stack the spacers. but if i get te bilsteins i will try this way!!
