Callin all CST guys

All right guys well the lift bug has finally got me. After doing some research I think I wanna go with the CST. I really only wanted a 6 inch lift but I decided the CST is that much taller. I was thinking I would stick with 35's for alittle more clearance. Just wanted to here some opinions on the lift. Im also excited about going to Troyer in a few days since I go to Virginia Tech its only about an hour away. Thanks for the help. Go Hokies

sweet glad to hear!!! where are you getting the lift from? are you ordering it online or at a local shop? 35's will fit well, i believe "Weasel" has 35's and they look pretty good. what tire do you want to run (brand).

that sounds sweet. that site was the cheapest i found aswell but i bought mine through a local shop. tires im a big fan of Mickey Thompson, i love the claws and the mtz's, i like toyo aswell but they dont have much of a selection in size. i know you can fit a bigger tire than that with no cutting at all. i also like wide tires as you can tell... but i would run like a 35x13.5 of a 36x13. if your looking for a allterrain tire i would stick with nitto... and dont ever look at the mud grapplers... i love the look of them, they just have bad tred life.

oh and the hoss is one of y favorite wheels right now i want them in black!!!!

and i couldnt be happier with my lift i love it!!! i have installed a fabtech and a procomp.. going from those to this was insane so much nicer, so much better quality. there wasnt one bolt that came with the kit that wasnt grade 8.

yea thats good to hear. I know procomp makes a 35x13.50. Who makes a 36" tire. I also heard that the uniball control arms squeak alot have you had any problems with your making alot of noise. I was also thinkin about getting the Fox coilovers made for this kit. they are only 1100 bucks on perfromance lifts, but I appreciate your help.

yup they are uniballs they make a little noise... not bad at all. they make the claw radial in a 35x13.5.... if you looking for an alterrian nitto TG have a 36x13r20 if you have seen the silver f150 on the cst sit thats what he is running. i would tottaly get the coilovers so worth it if your plannig on offroading and they are fully adjustable which will help alot when it comes to ride quality and hight adjustment.
