5-6" Suspension lift Question's?

I know, wasn’t seriously calling anyone a bully. Had a lot of laughs in the Hawaiian thread and was hoping this would turn into another one for entertainment, but I think that dudes truck looks great. There’s a couple in my area that are a bit overdone. Looks like this dude new exactly where to stop. Thing is a beast but still looks like a taco.

 

Bilstein has a strut designed for the DB lifts. This by all means is no longer travel, but there’s still travel lol.
Been rocking it for about 4 years and deciding on going coilover still

 

you were able to do that much lift with stock UCAs?

I thought you're supposed to run into alignment issues

 

technically the DB keeps factory geometry. I took the photos in those angles to reflect UCA and CV angles. Nice and flat lol. But yes, still having great numbers with alignment. However I’m expecting that to change since I’ve been using 35s for about 1 1/2 years now..I’m sure that’s stressing some things out lol

 

Big thing with 6" DB lifts is making sure to get the extended shocks, not massive spacers on top of the front shock.

With the rear, you want a block and a leaf lift, not just a 4" block. Usually a 2" block and 1" add-a-leaf.

BDS is my first and favorite choice for 6" brodozers.

Also many DB lifts don't accept 16" rims, make sure to read the fine print. Most take 17"

 

forgot about the rim size. Good point!

What about your drive train?
Buy 4" or 6" spindles if you are 2WD
