I've got the 6" RC lift + 2.5" Spacers on my 2wd and had no issues with it at all. I don't see why the quality would differ any from 2wd to 4wd trucks.

 

This was the SINGLE biggest reason I went with the Rancho kit when I bought, and trust me, I looked at just about all of them, even drove a few trucks with different lifts. I belong to a hunting club with about 75 members and a good 50 of 'em have lifted trucks, so I really got to ask a lot of first hand questions, look at and drive a few.

Note that the entire lift is supported by a FULL sub-frame. Yeah, it adds weight, a lot of weight, but I felt it was the single strongest kit available for an IFS truck at the time.



You'll also see that despite the 4" lift height up front, the CV angles are relatively close to stock. Also, you'll see the tie rod ends are not stock, they are much larger than the stock ones and are GREASABLE... :

 

WOW Hammer, the part list on the Rancho kit list does no justice compared to the size of the plate under your truck lol.

 

Its okay I appreciate your help. Yea I was just wondering, because I wanna get a very similar set up as your truck but I have a charcoal grey color. Love your set-up, I wanna black everything out. Cant wait.

 

Pitbull-what size rims and offset/backspacing is on your truck?

 

if you plan to go to a tire that big and wide you should plan a solid front axle swap, trust me the cvs wont take it.

 

+1

I have 20's & 38" rubber. IIRC -12 offset & 4.75 bs.

With a 6" lift on a 1500 I would suggest sticking with 18's & 35" tires. You can adjust depending on how much sidewall you want/need.

You can still create a nice, aggressive stance.

 

You and your pretty straight axle... jealous

 

I plan on a 6" lift, on 20x10 on 35s with -12 5.0 backspacing.

 

20" wheels with 35" tires isn't very off-roadable, just not enough sidewall flex and forget airing down for a bigger footprint, but you know best how you intend to use your truck...
