I have to lift the front of my dodge. I plowed snow for 9 years and have retired the truck. Rough country has a 2.5 inch lift with a 2 inch leaf in the back. I do run 35 tall B.F. goodrich AT already that just started hitting. Is this lift ok for the front and will the AAL siffen the ride? ( more than it alread is ) 4x4 w/ cummins 5 speed any suggestions???

 

What year is the tuck? 99'? How wide is the tire your running 11.5,12,12.5? I have an 06 with 35x12.5s on the stock rims. The truck has a 2" coil spacer in the front and I have no rubbing at full lock...I haven't checked for rubbing with the suspension flexed yet..




The kit is from http://www.hellbentsteel.com/ good quality it seems, ride barely changed, powder coated, not overpriced like some others either.... www.rockymountainsusp.com has some good prices on lifts as well, I was considering one actually...

 

35x12.5x16.5 is what I'm runnin now.

would the AAL make it ride ALOT worse or just as bad. ha ha

 

my fault, yes it is a 99

 

Mine rides fine, most people that rode in it before and after couldn't tell a difference just me cause I was so used to how it was ya know. and you might consider new shocks after havin all that wait up there if you haven't already...

I'd think a 2" spacer or lift coil would do the trick but I don't have a 99 either so they may be a lil different...

 

Excellent, thanks again!!!! the parts are on order!!!!!

 

the 2 inch spacers are in!!!! if I had a spring compressor it would of been done in 2 hours. Instead, 3 hours. Had to run to my buddies and compress the springs, chain them and then drive back. OK, 2 beersand burgersthen drive back. It looks awesume!!! rear leafs next!!!!

Hey Aero - Did you need spring compressorsto install your kit? I was reading the installation instructions on the HBS website and they did not mention them.

Thanks
