got my 1.5" zone bodylift done this weekend. took abo 7-8 hours I wasn't in a rush. my wheels should be in today or tomorrow. its been raining so I havnt taken any pics or done my 2" suspension lift.

 

im kind of worried the front lift block that goes on the lower control arm/bottom of strut up front is too small. it measures only 1.25" the ebay ad said it was a 2" front lift.

 

has anyone measured their RC 2.5 kit to see what the front kit has in it?

I used to have the 2.5"RC level in my truck. In addition to the lower control arm spacer there is another spacer that goes on the top of the strut/coil. I never measured it or anything but I'd guess it was another 1/2" or so.

yep I got in contact wirh RC and they said there is a 1" spacer for the bottom of the strut and a 0.25" spacer for the top of the strut. I guess my ebay 1.25" lower spacer will work. I wonder why RC makes 2 spacers when they could just make the lower one 0.25" taller?

got the spacers for the front in lastnight. it still looks extremely thight for a 5" tire. I have 2.5" of clearance at full lock around the current setup though so hopefully the 35 fits. the current tires I got the truck with are 275/55r20 which equate to a 32" tire. they stand 32.25" tall full of air. Saturday morning my wheels are getting delivered.

theyre finally on! had a rough time finding a shop that could mount/balance a 35" tire.

 

and to anyone getting fuel mavericks....stock lug nuts DONT fit.

 

truck has zero rub. more pics to come after work today. the tires stick out about 1.0-1.5" with the -12 offset. exactly what I was looking for. I have about 1/2" space left at full lock. keep in mind I did the norcal mod and tie wrapped my fender liners best I could.

You obviously still get rubbing when moving with body roll/bumps, or nothing?

nope no rubbing. I did the norcal mod and zip tied my fender liners. that's key to making a big tire fit in there. without it the 35" would rub real bad. takes 30mins a side to do the mods and you cant even tell its done

Do you need to go it to the back as well? Or just the front

Looks good! Now I just need my local shop to get the body lift in. They wont put on a 14-16 lift due to warranty issues......so I wait...
