6.5" lift... down to 4.5?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I currently have a 6.5" lift with 20x10 and 35s.

 

I would like to go down to a 4.5in lift and 33s. Mainly because pulling my rzr on a tandem axle steel trailer gets me 9mpg at 70mph.

 

Question is.. I dont know what brand my lift is. Original owner says it is a zone offroad, but it doesnt have "zone" printed anywhere on it.

 

It has blocks in the back and a spacer in the front.

 

I'm thinking I could just measure my rear blocks and take 2in off the height and buy new ones.. doesnt really matter which brand right?

 

For the front, since it has a strut spacer I was thinking just buy an actual strut that was made to lift a chevy? Or a smaller spacer?

 

Has anyone done this before? I will get pics later of strut and blocks. Is it this simple to do?

 

*** I know I can run 33s with my lift. I think it will look dumb though.

Doubt your going to gain much mpg dropping down to a 33.

Post up some pics. I'm sure either myself or someone here can tell you what lift you have.

I can tell you that you won't gain any real mpg going to a 33 though. You might pick up 1 mpg. Tire width and truck aerodynamics are working against you.
