How High Of A Lift Before A Diff Drop Is Needed?

just curious cause on my last truck it was needed for almost any lift. i am looking into doing a leveling kit but not 100% sure yet.

if you're talking about a leveling kit... anything over 2". But its almost a moog point because at that point there's more to worry about than just your CV angles; tie rods, steering linkage or steering rack, balljoints.

 

if you're talking about real suspension lifts... they all come with diff drops.

ok thanks. i was referring to a leveling kit but i am still not convinced on them. i would love to know if anyone make aftermarket front springs with a heavier rate.

 

truth is i really don't want a lift but i do plan on adding a plow and i am concerned with the sag. i am considering either the level kit or a set of timbrens. i am leaning more towards the ladder cause of the way both setups work.
