Bilstein 5100's? Ok bare with me here, i understand you will tell me that stacking these will result in changing my Ball Joints out in the near future BUT, I have a 2wd and want to adjust the struts to 1'' mark making a total of 3.5'' in the front! Now, I have the 2.5'' spacer mounted ABOVE my strut assembly and the Bilsteins will be below it, In most cases your Upper ball joints are the first to go, and wouldnt the pressure on the upper's be the same after I put the Bilsteins on and just more pressure on the lower joints? I have already ordered aftermarket Upper (with a-arms) and Lower joints with Tie Rod ends to replace anyways (regreasable) If anyone has done this let me know if you had to replace any NEW ball joints after and how long until you had to! i have people at Off road and tire shops telling me It shouldn't put any more stress on the uppers and y'all tell me different? Thanks again

 

No more than 2.5". With any combination of those. Ball joints will be going out ever 6 months or so if you tried that. And that's even if you could fit it all back into place.

 

Ok hahahaha never mind, just looked at my upper ball joints and they are flexing already, does any one know if they make a Control arm that's more "Angled" to accommodate for the stack?

 

Those uniball camburg upper control arms may be more "angled". I'm not sure. I don't have any experience with them. But the other parts will still get worn out fast like lower ball joints, tie rod ends, and sway bar end links. Like pizzaman said, you may not even be able to get it put back together with 3.5" of lift in the front

 

The stack is just not possible. Either stick with the level, get a body lift, or save your money and buy a full lift.

 

Why dont you just get a set of spindles in what you want and keep front end together and good ride also,

 

No lift spindles for 04+

 

^ you tell him

 

I did!

But i'll tell him again.

There are no lift spindles for the 04+

 

absolutely not.

 

oh, definitely it can be done. have fun bolting everything back together

 

Hah Ok, well then I wont do it :P The only reason I was going to do that is Because My 315-70-r17's Scrub just A Little, but just found out they make Things called WHEEL SPACERS lol I'm a noob! Do you guyz think a 1'' Wheel Spacer should do the trick? I scrub against my frame just a tad at Full crank! Thanks for all the Help.

 

you put 1" spacers on your stock wheels you are going to rub valence and possibly the rear of the wheel well.

Just don't turn full lock if it bothers you.

 

Oh man, wheel spacers...

 

Wheel spacers are going to make the rubbing on the bumper and wheel well liner (the black plastic stuff inside the fender, whatever it's called) worse. And many people say wheel spacers are dangerous because they can break while driving. I've never used them so I don't know from first hand experience. That's just what I've heard
