Rear Lift OPTiONS


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello guys, Here is my question.

 

I have a 6.5" Zone lift with a AAL.

I measure 46" front lift from ground to fender and 48" back lift from ground to fender.

What im wanting to do is a add Bilstien 5100 to the front to get my front to 48" of lift and now im looking for a 1" lift option for the rear to keep a 1" rake.

I already have a block and a AAL so do not want to do anything with that to get 1 more inch back there. So what other options of lift are there for the rear to get 1 extra inch?

Shackes?

Does a shock extender add lift or does it just make the shock reach?

Only set the bilstein to the closest setting to 1" instead of 2". I'm not sure what your angles up front look like but knowing the cheap lift kit companies they may have only given you a 4 or 5 inch drop bracket so it's like you're already on a 1" level on top of that if you have a 6.5" strut spacer. If you do the 2" bilstein on top of all that you may be in for a horrible ride and premature wear of parts (ball joints, tie rod ends, etc)

I have the same color Chevy Silverado and I think the truck looks great as is. If anything do take an inch out of the bilstein shocks in the front but you may notice some steering issues with the rake.
