Sure do. e1a4632306b0875430481a030613d362.jpg

Looks great! What tire/wheel size? I found a pair of wheels I like that are 18x9 offset 12mm/ backspacing 5.47", I'm hoping those would work since the kit says OEM wheels won't.

I think I got the kit and installed for 1900. This is the best pic I've got for now.

Does the Zone 4.5" kit actually lift the truck 4.5"? Or is it more? I believe someone posted that BDS's 4" lift was actually 5" or even 5.5" which is really disappointing. I would like a true 4" kit. I don't think anyone is running Skyjackers 4" or Procomps 4" but I could be wrong. I'd love to see those...

The measurements i got a while back were 43" in the front and about 43.25" in the rear. not sure what the stock measurements were but if you don't have anything on your truck you can base it off that. also have to consider how big of tires are on the truck...

Mine measures 41" front, and rear at the wheel wells, with 305/55/20's. Which I think are the same as 33-12.50's

Anyone with the 7" RCX lift notice that the rear leafs have a funny arch to them after the rear blocks have been installed? when I look at the rear leafs it looks high in the center and then lower at the ends of the blocks. Kinda looks like a "W" are the outter small U-bolts to tight??

Ok so I'm dead set on the rough country 7" lift for my truck but has anyone seen or heard of the air lift kits (not the one for towing sag) I'm talking actual lift kits, found a site called (kelderman.com) that has it for the 2015 2500's. So I need help finding something for a 1500 please. 978851ff72426c1f3701e741154eb800.jpg

A few of us created a thread and talked about a real air lift a while ago. I would love to go that route but no one makes one for any 1500 truck. Only way you'll be able to get something like that is if you can custom fab it or someone even mentioned maybe some kind of hydraulic system (like they use on low riders but the opposite. Let's call it a high rider)

So I'm stuck between the Rough Country 7" lift or the McGaughys 7-9" Economy lift set at 8". Will run 37s with either kit. Options on these lifts please, I am looking at other topic pages but want y'all's take on it as well. a2dadc6f35dd3708d7e6b3a6b3c9f143.jpg

McGaughys set at 9" on 20s an 37s

Rough Country 7" on 20s ( could be 22s no sure) an 35s.

Depends on the offset you are using to be honest. Ive seen 37s on the rough country lift but one guy is running -76 offset and he rubs so bad its not even funny. Maybe 7" RCX and the 1.5" body lift

I'm pretty sure that If you do anything but the McGaughy 7-9" at proper setting, then you'll have to trim off some of the bumper to prevent rubbing.
