    You know of any similar lift for a 4x4? That stance is just what I'm looking for, but obviously can't do a spindle

    Got my 887s on today with 1/4" driver side spacer, set at 0" with my Bilstein 5100s. Went smooth and got almost another half an inch of lift from the 5100s with stock springs set at 2.5". Also rides muuch smoother. Great upgrade.

    Thanks for responding. I just re-read your original thread on your lift you went with and its got me sold on what I want to do with my truck. Its been a long time coming for me as i'm at 147,3xx miles on the factory 4x4 suspension; I just never could make up my mind on what I want to do.

    Right on. Aftermarket UCAs would be smart, easier on the other front end components. Although the stock ones work, they are really maxed out. But work. Also keep in mind driveline vibrations are notorious. Mostly all to do with the carrier bearing. Shimming the rear axle, as well as possible carrier bearing drop, and even an aftermarket carrier bearing. Usually solves these vibrations. Search for Spicer XC, or IEDLS carrier bearings and you will see.
