So back when I was in college I put on a 2 inch level and 1.5 BL to clear 33s by 12.5. I still rub but it’s done the job. However I found an insanely good deal on a zone 6.5 suspension kit that I am going to install and remove the two inch level but obviously keep the body lift. might be a dumb question but is the suspension kit a true 6.5 lift? And same for the 1.5 BL? Meaning would I really technically have 8 inches of lift? I plan to upgrade to 35s but just curious

I will check then our. I was thinking zone or cognito also. I was told NOT to get a uni ball uca unless I want to grease it every week

I am waiting on a 6.5 inch lift and probably going to go with zone offroad UCA. I got the lift from them and the uca's are 500 but probably worth the investment.

nice! I just ordered the zone 6.5 kit. Just replaced my struts but thinking about replacing my control arms/ball joints and tie rod ends when I do the lift. I just am torn between paying $500 for zone or cognito control arms. Did zone come with the ball joints or did you have to buy that separately also? I just don't see a viable alternative to them besides stock..

what control arms did you replace with?

Adding a zone 6.5 inch lift on my 2014 sierra. It has roughly 135k miles on engine. I just replaced front struts and sway bar links (even though kit comes with new links)..realized that after fact. I have steel cast control arms and curious what I should replace? A lot of people on facebook suggest the congnito or zone upper control arms but they are $500 just for the set. I was wondering if I could replace just the ball joints/tie rod ends when I install kit and then down the road replace UCA's with cognito...or is the stock cast steel control arm and ball joint all one piece? Meaning i cant just replace the ball joint? Just looking for some feedback and suggestions. i will have my son in truck a lot so that is why i want to be extra sure I have a solid front end. Any feedback, your pictures of 6.5 inch lifts, and experience with maintenance is appreciated. Been awhile since i posted on here!!

hey fellas I don't wanna hijack this thread because we have some beautiful rigs here..but quickly I have a two inch level with a 1.5 zone body lift on my 2014 sierra 1500. can I get away running 275-60-20 on 20x9 wheels with -12 offset??

any rubbing? I was looking to run 275-60-20 with -12 offset on 20x9 rims.

sorry should of specified I am planning to run -12 offset.

I HAVE A 2 INCH LEVEL WITH ZONE 1.5 BODY LIFT. CAN I FIT 275-60-20 TIRES ON THIS SET UP WTIHOUT ANY RUBBING?

i have a 2 inch front level and the 1.5 zone body lift on my truck. Will 275-60-20 wheels fit without any trimming on this set up? its about a 33 inch tall tire.

whats your mileage like?

yes I know but anything is better the my stock 17 inch GM wheels with 265-70-17 tires. At least the larger rim and a little more heigh/width of the 18 tire will fill up some more wheel well until I stop being a wussy and pull the trigger on some 275-70-18s but they only come in ten ply and range E. if there was a larger tire that wasn't 15 pounds more then my oem set up that would kill my MPG I would do that. but again anything is better then my stock wheels and tires IMO

question for any techs or gear heads... I have a 2 inch level with a 1.5 inch body lift on my 2014 sierra. can I run 18x9 wheels with a +1 offset or a -12 offset wrapped in 265-70-18 tires with no issues or trimming required? thanks

question.. I have a two inch level and a 1.5 body lift. I want to put 18x9 wheels with 265-70-18 tires with a +1 offset on the wheels. will I run into any rubbing issues with this set up? or anyone running something similar
