Ive been thinking about finding some at a JY and putting em on my truck for the extra inch of lift. My tires rub pretty bad when I flex too much with my 33 Trail Grapplers as I found out last weekend(I will post pics! Some pretty sick off roading!). I also think I need to get some wheel spacers, how much would that run me? I think my tires rub on the arm or whatever when I have it turned and hit a curb(or off roading).

 

ive actually searched http://car-part.com for some 2500 springs for mine......for the front coils it was $25 for the pair, and the Leafs were $75 a pair......but thats my area, yours may be different

 

I would almost bet the only place your tires rub are on the control arms (when turning... flexing has nothing to do with it). An extra inch of lift will not fix this issue, nor would ten inches of lift. You either need new wheels, or some wheel spacers... or don't turn quite so sharp.

 

Well it rubs on the control arms in front and the wells in back. So I think I need both lol Ill do a search for my area and see what I come up with.

Arent spacers pretty expensive? like 250 a set? or somewhere up there? Ill do a search for that too. And while Im at it, I will upload my pics to photobucket haha

 

I take that back, spacers vary in price haha

 

My 2" spacers were $65 shipped (from Fat Bob's).

 

Just stay the hell out of rivers, okay?

 

I have also been looking for 2500 springs for my truck. I found a set for 50 a side but thought that was a bit high.

 

Trust me.... I will! hahaha Unless I have to cross em to keep goin)and thats if it aint movin pretty damn fast) lol


Was it $65 for all 4?


I have to call and see how much shocks and leafs are. Plus theyre 2 hours away.... Im gonna go around JY up near me and see if they have any. I personally dont wanna go to Pueblo, Colorado unless I have too IE:get work done on my truck.

 

4? There is only two needed... one on top of each coil.


What are you doing with your leaf springs now? You cant just simply swap them out for 3/4 tons... they are wider. If you want more lift in the back too, then get a small add-a-leaf. But I thought you were gonna try to level the truck (which a few extra inches in the front would do when leaving the back stock).

The cheapest you will probably find a set of shocks for is about $130-150, which are for just regular hydro shocks (BDS, Rancho, Superlift etc.).
