Adding 1" to RCX
Adding 1" to RCX
04 f150 fx4 6" Rough country
So i have the 6" rough country, 6" 5100 bilsteins on 35's. I got the 1" daystar budget boost and a 1.5" AAL for the rear waiting to install. Just wondering if it's safe to add, I know RCX only drops down 5" so anything over 1" is a no go but should i have any problems with 1"? The truck mostly stays on pavement, sees offroad maybe a few times a month. heres the angles now at 6", should i be ok adding on?

He is not at stock angles. And it's the drop down crossmember that's limiting the angles here, not the spindle. If the size of the drop down crossmember is the same as the amount of lift then it puts him at around stock angles. But his kit doesn't give the full amount of drop down.
U want to add bigger tires?, im in same boat...have a rcx 6 but would like to run 36-37 inch tires so need another 2inch

I'd look into a body lift then. You can't get another 2" out of the rcx lifts and keep proper angles.
The bilstein 5100's for the 04+ come in 0-2.5" and 4-6" so he's using all of the lift that the bilsteins can give with the 4-6" ones.
not right now, it's more of a planning ahead kind of thing. my 35's still have plenty of tread but i plan on getting 37's once these wear down, after i regear so the extra 1" will help.
