What lift or combination of lifts will fit 305's
I have an '05 Supercrew Lariat 4x4 with the factory 18 x 7.5's. I have the oem 275/65/18's. I want to install a set of BFG AT's in 305/65/18. What amount of lift do I need?
First, I'm in the minority b/c I don't have a problem with the factory rake. I like the leveled look, but I'm wary b/c some of the leveled trucks look as if they sit higher in the front and sag in the rear. I know the measurements are equal but the stance doesn't look right to me.
Does anyone know if this combination will give me what I want?
Front: set of Bilstien 5100 adjustable shocks to add 2" in front
Rear: set of Bilstein 5100 shocks and 1.5" autospring block
I'm also considering the AS 1.5" AAL, but concerned about squeaking and rougher ride.
I basically want to stay close to the factory stance but raise the truck enough to clear 305's with no rubbing or trimming. I do not want to do a body lift.
