Lift kit install. Tire and trim (mount and balance) included in tire price.

 

Thats what I thought. So between the 6" lift and the new tires how much net lift did you get?

 

Wont know until April 15. Thats when my install is scheduled. Everything is just in my garage...it sucks but had to save more money, tapped out truck fund on parts

 

~ it should be 6" + 1/2 (new tire size - old tire size)

obviously each lift brand will be slightly different in height, each truck is slightly different, tire size difference between brands, etc so their are variables that will change between each person

 

Just figured I'd throw in a picture for reference. Mines an '05 2wd with a 3" body lift, 2.5" level, and 315/70/17 Firestone MT.

 

how big are your tires in inches?
how much did they cost?
how much did ur body kit cost?
I have a 06 f150 scab 2wd and im thinking about buying a leveling kit and then getting bigger tires. What I really want tho is a 6'' or bigger suspension lift

 

I have a 2wd scab '05 with a 3" HBS leveling kit and 33 x 12.5r 17 nitto mud grapplers and I need about an inch or two in the from to have a bulldog stance and to tuck 35's BUT i cannot use a body lift. any suggestions besides a full suspension lift??

 

no choices, you can always get fiberglass fenders which will allow a bigger tire, but a suspension lift would be cheaper by the tim they got painted and what not.

 

4x4 shocks wouldn't help?

 

Adding 4x4 shocks would be like doing a leveling kit. Then if you stacked your 3" level on top of that it would be terrible. Horrible ball joint angles plus your control arm would make contact with your springs.

 

Also why can't you use a body lift?

 

I have a ranch hand front bumper replacement and it would look terrible with a body lift. I also plan on getting the back bumper replacement also

 

Its not hard to refab the mounts and I'm pretty sure some companies already sell ranch hands for trucks with bl's

 

Bls look terrible with ranch hands

 

you won't even notice if it's done right. that's your only choice unless you want a suspension lift. by the time you got the bl done with bumpers it'd be as much as suspension
