That's a sweet ride, I'm actually doing the Zone 6.5" lift with a 20x10 -19 with 325/60/20 latter in this week. Do you have any rubbing with that setup?

 

Quite a bit originally due to the extra width and height on the tire over a normal 35X12.50 Nitto. Front at about 30% turn was hitting the metal corner on the front bumper and at full lock it was rubbing the rear firewall inner fender (black plastic insert). I solved the front and gained plenty of room by spacing the front bumper out (1/2") a hair and raising it up 1/4" as well. Now I just need to address the slight rub at full lock on rear. The Zone knuckles might not stick out as far as the RC knuckles which would eliminate the issue. That wheel offset you have is 5mm less than mine which will help as well. I have a good 4" to the swaybar at full lock so I could have stuffed them inside the wheel well more if I had the option on the wheels. The company I work for is a RC vendor as well as for several wheel manufacturers so I was being cheap and only went with what I got dealer cost on.

Did the BDS 6" with Fox shocks. 22x12 Sprockets on 33" Toyo MT's. Rides like stock, no rub no trimming.

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

Nice truck. Anymore pics? I have a Brownstone and haven't seen too many lifted. I'm hoping to lift mine in a few months.

Nice truck. May want to consider blacking out the chrome trim pieces and handles to match the wheels.

Truck looks great! I'm running a similar setup with the BDS 6" and 35s. My truck has got a bit of a lean to it. Did you go blocks or leafs in back? I went with the blocks and did not add a leaf which would likely level it.

 

Thanks.

Thanks. I need to do this. I don't mind a bit of rake but it's pretty extreme when towing.

Have any of you guys with zone lift or similar done any other suspension mods to your trucks like after market shocks for the front and rear? I'd like some options for rear shocks. what's available for us zone 6.5 folks? What about aftermarket control arms? Or sway bars ? Any issues with fitment with zone lift?

Also interested in hearing about people's setups. I went 6" BDS without the fox coilovers and now wanting front and rear shocks replaced with kings, fox or ???, so I can be more aggressive off road. Something that works with these lifts zone/BDS, etc.

I am running BDS 6" with FOX DSC Coilovers and Cognito UCA's. I am also running a FOX DSC rear shock as well. The ride is great. Probably as close to factory as I can get while having a lift.

Finally, a truck with some bling instead of hideous black rims and boring color matching!! Well done.

 

I'm hearing good things about the Nitto RG.

 

You running rear spacers on that knuckle lift?

Yeah 1/4 inch on the front and 2.5 on the back to even it out

Gotta ask...what do your angles look like? I've been focused on 3-4" lifts, but have been curious of this one as well.

There just as even as it was stock it's perfect angles in my opinion it couldn't be any better
