I ordered the bilsteins 5100's and will be lifting the front 2 more inches. I already have a procomp stage one lift. My question is what would be the best way of achieving the extra inch in the rear. And might i be able to clear 37's with this setup.

 

What do you already have installed in the rear now?

I have the ProComp stage II kit on my truck with Coilovers.

I have 5" of blocks, 1.5-2 inches from the AAL, and a one inch shim

If you truly only need an inch, I would get a shim kit. They are $30.

 

i have a brand new 2" AAL for sale for 110$ + shipping. May be a little better for the height you need.

 

How does your truck ride with the add a leaf

 

Where did you get the shim kit??

 

Its a little rougher, but i dont really notice it. I have my coilovers cranked so i was expecting a rougher ride. I drive this truck everyday. I doesnt bother me.

 

4WP- Part # was 52700
Its just 4 quarter inch plates that stack together and provide 1" in the back.

 

IM not totally sure but i think the procomp lift comes with a 4 inch block in the rear. Not a 100% sure though. And i have never even heard of a shim lift before. Learn something new everyday on this site.

 

pro comp kit comes with a 3" block. shims usually correct your pinion angle and can aquire you a little more height, usually an inch. heres a pic of my block setup with a shim

 

Nooq, is your shim built in or are the like the 4 quarter inch plates that he was talking about a few posts up?

 

One more inch in the rear? That is what I gave my Wife.

 

Jditta,

Nooq has the same shim kit I'm talking about. The little gold plates above his lift blocks are what Im talking about.

 

Yea, I just think I remember him saying they were built into his leaf pack because he tried to remove them. That's why I asked.

 

will the shim kit give you a true one inch of lift or a little less

 

those shims are built into the leafs themselves, i tried removing them with a tap and sledgehammer and they wouldnt budge. they did give me a honest inch of height in the rear. that is why i needed to crank my coilovers up to get the truck to sit level. the a$$ end was up higher then the front with the coilovers uncranked.
