2014+ Suspension Lifts

[Wideopen]

I got a 3 inch lift on my 2014 sierra its one of those ready lift kits i believe so technically a slightly bigger leveling kit including a slightly bigger block in the rear and put the Fuel tires 33x12.5x20 and have a bit of a rub on the upper control arm on full turn and want to know what offset i can get on rims to eliminate the problem and not going crazy on the offset.

 

You'd still rub the sway bar with +18 offset for sure.

0 offset you might rub the fender but I can't confirm that.

Has anyone with lifted truck using a strut block extension replaced the factory struts with bilstein 5100. If so did it improve the ride ? Or is it best off to spend the extra cash on full coilOver replacement to remove the strut spacer?

Thanks

On my 2012 AWD Denali I replaced the stock shocks with Bilstein 5100's and it rode great. But that was also on a well built suspension kit from CST.

Anyone running lift spindles on a 2wd? Looking to run Maxtrac spindles, either 3" or 4.5". I'm running 20x9 +12 offset 5.5 backspace wheels. Can't get a definite answer if my wheels will work or not. I'd rather not run spacers on the front to clear the spindles.

just did my 7.5" RCX lift with 35's and I had to replace the spindles on my 2wd

rough country 4.75 lift, 20x10 Moto Metal 970's with - 24 offset, 305/55R20 Toyo Open Country AT II's Extreme. Minor rubbing in reverse at full lock on the plastic trim. Not bad at all.

 

Truck looks awesome! I sent you a private message with a few questions if you don't mind giving some feedback on your thoughts so far.

New to the fullsize game here. I personally drive a Tacoma but my dad picked up '14 Denali and I am trying to piece together a quality lift for him. It really will only be seeing street use but needs to be reliable and comfortable if the going gets tough. He is deadset on running 35's and wants as little lift as possible to clear them. I like the BDS 4" kit but want to upgrade the coilovers and rears for something like Fox, King, or Icon. I know on Tacomas Icon makes custom coilovers to fit with a drop bracket lift, do any of the reputable companies provide an option like this that would work with the BDS 4" kit? Are there any other companies I should look at that I dont know of? Thanks in advance.

Zone off-road is the sister company of BDS and is a quality lift also, but is also friendly to the bank account Edited May 6, 2015 by Mike1220

Just got off the phone with him and the off road shop talked him into a Fabtech 6" kit with Fox 2.5" Coilover and rear Fox 2.0". I'm okay with the Fox parts as I know they are good quality but I am unfamiliar with the Fabtech kit. Any input on this kit?

Just got my Mcgaughy lift in the other day going to be installing it this weekend.

Im thinking about it. I just got to find time of taking off the bumper sanding and finding good weather to get it done. Also tossing around the idea of selling her

Why would you wanna sell the truck!?
