I think i will by the skyjacker 3" lift coils since i will save money from not buying the control arms. fortunately the previous owner put in shocks for a 3 inch lift. Thanks Dycrow27.

 

No problem glad i could help. I know everyone else on here helps me out DAILY :/ And good choice of going with the lift coils better than a spacer but then again only 1.5'' spacers not that bad my 3'' looked stupid haha

 

If you just buy 2500 springs and they're off a gas motor truck they will only give 1.5 inches of lift. The cummins springs are stiffer and will give you 3 inches of lift. That's what I'm going to do

 

Yup yup

 

The lift was already on it when i bought it so i couldn't tell you the difference from stock. Though it seems you know what your doing now. I didn't think 3" would require longer arms and I'm pretty sure I have the stock pitman arm. I think its anything beyond 3" that requires those things.

 

dycrow what is wrong with spacers? I see thats what has been installed on my truck and it sits and rides good. Are they going to give me problems in the future?

 

No there is nothing wrong with spacers its a easy way to lift a truck and affordable... I just like the look of ALL coil spring.

 

I looked up the 3" fabtech lift out of curiosity and noticed it said recommended tire size 33's. I have 315-75-16 (35's) and the only problem I have is turning sharp. The inside of my all terrains are all chewed up for I need off set wheels or spacers which I don't trust. Not sure what size tire you want to go with but giving you a heads up.

 

rammit360 the truck is sitting on 315's it currently has a 2" suspension lift and a 1" custom body lift(not hockey pucks). I just want to get the front an 1.5 higher to level the truck.

 

If you can live with 2" instead of 1.5" buy Hell Bent Steel's 2" spacers. $65 shipped, I ordered mine wednesday, arrived yesterday (friday). Great quality stuff with a very nice/durable looking powder coat.
