I want to level out the front end, but I'm unsure which kit to go with. Any suggestions

 

I really liked the Tuff Country ones I had for about 2 weeks.

Price was right, steel instead of plastic.

Haven't heard anything bad from people who've had them on longer than I did.

Why only two weeks?

 

My tires still rubbed, had to get the Skyjacker 4.5" to stop the rub.

10 inch wheels with 4.6" backspace and 35 inch tires doesn't quite work with only a 2" lift.

Hey I just called a Tough Country Dealer. He told me that i needed a 3" spacer, I thought a 2" would do the job.

 

2 inch levels it out nicely.

Here's mine with the 2"
It rubbed right where the front splashguards connected to the fender.
8-9" wide wheels would most likely not rub there.



It was still slightly raked, but as soon as you put something in the bed,
or hooked to a trailer it would be leveled right out.
3inch, IMHO, would be level unloaded, but severely nosehigh with a load.

Thanks guys

 

I got and set of billet aluminum adjustable spacers from Truckinsuspensions.com (aim industries) They are adjustable from 1" to 4.75". Right now I have em set around 2.75" to level out my truck. Later I will do control arms , track bar bracket & pitman drop to go to the full 4.75"

Works for me. I am running Michelin XL's 11.00 R 16 (39" x 11") right now after some fender "sculpting"

 

Looking forward to checking them out on the 20th....I cant seem to find them...do you have a p/n? Considering 315 on 16X10's but am thinking they wont fit with just the Skyjacker D25's.....

 

Phox,

regarding the rubbing - are you talking about rubbing during normal city driving - parking lots and such or are you talking about off road stuff?? Still have not bought those welds and am trying to figure out if they will fit or not

 

Yes, normal daily driving.

Had to take turns like a semi, nice and wide.

Didn't even try to take them offroad till I got the 4.5"

D25's usually get 2.5" of lift, a little more than the 2" spacer which gets you 2".

D25's plus DT's 1/2" longer control arms would probably be just right to prevent the rubbing.
Of course, I found this out after I got the 4.5".

There kit with the Bilstien shocks will be going on my truck in the spring.Cant wait.

 

Hey there, Is KORE basically the same system as the TREX? I was looking at the TREX system before, KORE looks like it is the same system? Any comments?

 

T-Rex changed their name to KORE (Kroeker Off Road Enterprises, I think?) due to some business restructuring and there being half a dozen companies out there now called T-rex.....
