What rear shocks did you go with on the zone lift? How do they ride?

 

I went with the Zone Nitro rear shocks and the Add-A-Leaf kit. The ride is excellent IMO.

Crappy pic, but this was right after it pulled out of the garage last night. 4.5 zone with fox in the rear, 35x12.50r20 nitto ridge grapplers on stock elevation rims. Ride seems better then stock, i

Didn't see any but did you post fenderwell measurements? Im curious on my double cab if the aal will raise rear to high?

 

No, I did not post the fender-well measurements. I did not have the before the lift measurement. I will try and get the measurements some time this week.

I would think that your tires would stick out further due to the negative offset. Mine are 0 (zero) offset on a 20x9. I wouldn't think that it would be significantly more (I could be wrong, and have been before, and will be again I'm sure. LOL), but it would be a little more.

No prob. Easy to figure out bs in future. Whatever your advertised wheel width says always add +1. Remember 1 inch converts to 25.4 mm

So yours would be -12/25.4=-.47. Now take your wheel 9+1=10/2=5. So 5-.47=4.53 bs. You can take off your wheels right now. Get straight edge and measure from that to mounting pad inside wheel. Easy to do and leaves no room for error. Your offset of -12 basically means your mounting pad sits inside .47 of centerline of the wheel

Anyone with the 4" fabtech lift? What size of tire can I go without rubbing and don't want to trim. It's probably posted on here but couldn't find it

Love your truck man. I love the look of my lifted double cab with the 6.5' bed. Nice!

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
