how to lift rear for 37's?
 
I have a 6" suspension right now. I want to go higher and im gonna get the bilstein adjustable shocks for the front.. but whats the best way to lift the rear to even it out? bigger block? new leaf spring??

you could do new leaf springs, block or add a leaf but what is your set up right now

i used a pro comp long style AAL and it sits pretty level

id get a 5.5" block and their 1.5" add a leaf

u dont have to lift the rear to fit 35's, its the front that matters.

eff one fitty had 6" and 37's for a while before he bumped it to 8"

i would run the same set up fx4 for life has, get one block for the rear and an AAL. not sure if you like your trucks ass saggy or not. the 5.5 and AAL will make you just a tad ass high

as long as you dont stack more than 2 blocks or have a total block stack over 6" you wont have any problems

i wouldn't suggest stacking blocks anyways, especially since you already are stacked as it is, since you will be buying a new block probly anyways just get the right size and get away w/ the two you have now.

personally I would do aal or a new spring pack but as previously stated as long as your block stack is no more than two and your total blocks are no more than six inches you should be ok

BLUEBEAST06FX4 05-15-2009 02:21 PM

thanks for all the help you guys.. i think im gonna get a 5.5" block and the 1.5" AAL like fx4 for life 79 said

I would go to a spring shop and see what they think?

I have the Pro Comap Stage I. I used a 2.5" spacer and an 2" AAL in the rear. You can look at my pic's and see that my back is some-what lower.

the best method would be a complete replacment spring pack. I know Deaver makes them with 4" of lift but they run 750 bucks, but best springs out there period.

BLUEBEAST06FX4 05-20-2009 07:14 AM

if i were to get the 5.5" block and 1.5" AAL would take out whatever blocks i have now and put the new ones in??
