How did you find out if you had aluminium control arms or not?

Thank you for the informative post. Good bang for the buck mod. It looks great on your truck.

You can put a magnet to your control arms. If the magnet doesn't stick then you have aluminum.

[RyanbabZ71]

I think the XFE pkg and hybrid trucks are the only ones with the alum control arms

Ok so you gained one inch in the rear? Is it because the blocks in there already are 2 inch? This looks good! I like it, might do it myself!

Rear Drivers Side: 38"

Rear Drivers Side: 39-7/8"

 

Increase: 1-7/8" (1.875")

 

Rear Pass Side: 38-3/8"

Rear Pass Side: 40"

 

Increase: 1-5/8" (1.625")

 

Seems like more than 1" to me. I believe the stock blocks are 1.25" so the numbers I see are reasonable.

Opps you're right, thanks.

I understand I did a quick look right off the bat and was like WTF it barely changed then I readjusted my eyes and seen it was more. I can also tell a difference in how high the bed sides are. Doesnt bother me as I dont load things in and out over the sides.

Looks good. I did the same. RC 2" front level kit and rear 3" blocks (readylift) about 700 miles ago. Actually thinking about ditching from 2" RC level kit and rear 3" Readylift blocks for Bilstein which would give 1.75" front lift and then getting Readylift 2" rear blocks. Nothing wrong with the rc2/readylift3.

 

Anybody interested in the rc 2" level kit fron and rear 3" blocks from Readylift?
