3 OR 6 INCH LIFT


Recommended Posts

Here's one..but its a custom lift. It's a 12" lift, probably too high for what you want.

Yeah! That is way above and beyond what I am looking for. For the life of me I cant figure out what the big deal is to lift a QS truck.

 

 

 

 

 

The biggest problem with the q-steer lifts is the rear axle pinion angle/caster angle. If you rotate the rear for pinion angle, your caster will be off in the rear. If you keep the caster set in stock spec, the higher the lift, the uglier the drivshaft angles.

 

The right way to do it would be to keep the caster correct, then cut and turn the rear diff. for the correct driveshaft angle.

I never thought of it that way. Wonder how a body lift would look on it.
