an 8" lift is pretty damn big.

 

Do hey even make a 8" lift for 1500s? The max i've seen is 6" without going custom.

 

i would think a 6" lift would be plenty. they already sit high stock. add a 6" lift and i think your sittin plenty high. 35's on there and id say your good to go. i have 33's on my truck and wish i had gone up a series but didnt have the funds to do so. plus its my dd/work truck so need to blow big money.

throw in gears and you already have the predator..

being so new.. and im pretty sure it will void the warranty, or atleast some part of it

 

You think that 35's would be big enough for a 6" lift?
This is the look I want. I don't think 35's are gonna look big enough on my 20's. I want to keep the 20's even if they are aftermrket. I like the look. That's why I say 37's because it will give a bit more sidewall. This is the look I want http://images.marketplaceadvisor.cha...megatgc701.jpg

It's a mix between offroad and street

 

what you are saying can abosolutely be done with a 1500.

DodgeNitto has 4.56 gears and 37" Nitto Mud Grapplers. He loves his setup.

MMStar23 has a 3" body kit and a level and I think 35" Tires

Hammer has a 4" suspension lift with 35" tires. He off-roads plenty, so you know that suspension lift will hold up.

4" suspension lift, and a 3" body lift to get you that 7", both tried and true setups, should be able to combine them. with that much lift, 37's will clear no problem. going to 37" tires and 4.56 gears (assuming you have 3.92 now) will actually balance out pretty well, and you will be roughly within 3% of stock gearing. With only 4" of suspension lift, the driveshaft angle should be fine, so no problems there either.

Do it.

 

I see no problems with what you said with the miles you put on it. And the use for it I think you will be fine with that set up.

 

if thats the look you want, money can make it happen. it definitely looks sick. i love it too. looks just like the truck i posted in the other thread on my favorite truck.

scroll down to "AndyK" about 5/6 down the page.

 

With the economy the way it is right now, they will try to void the warranty for any mod to save money.
They can say that the extra weight of the wheels and tires stressed out the drivetrain and try to void the warranty regardless if it is a 1500 or 2500.

 

Not much extra weight goin from 33" to 35".

Thanks Mdram43 for that link. That truck looks perfectly fine with 35's on a 6" lift. Actually I think 37's would be too much for the wheel well on that truck.

 

Get the 2500 if you can. There will never be this good of deals on them anytime soon. I am glad I did.
