    Just wondering if there’s any difference between a 4 cyl lift kit and a 6 cyl lift kit, just wanna make sure it’ll work before I drop a couple grand. Thanks

    *Most* available lifts are for 6 lugs, although a few 5 lug lift kits exist

    Ensure you are buying the appropriate one based on 5 lug or 6 lug since both 4 and 6 cylinders are available on both described variants

    Why not link the kit

    Just wanted to make sure, the one I’ve been looking at is for a 6 lug. So there aren’t any suspension differences between 4 cyl and 6 cyl 1st gens besides the lug pattern?

    The lug pattern differences mean different frame and suspension type.

    The engine differences change nothing.

    So yes if you have a 6 lug, and you buy parts for a 6 lug model, engine-option does not matter.

    Engine choice is only mentioned specifically for front coils when trying to figure out "estimated height over stock" specifically with OME. The 4 cylinder weighs a bit less than the 6 cylinder so the manufacturer gives an estimated amount of lift achieved in relation to spring rate.
