    do you have the 4 or 6 inch rcd kit? i have the 4 inch and i want to lift the front up an inch or so because it sags. the mechanic who did the lift for me thinks that the spacers wont be good for the ball joints, what do u think?

    nice then i would go for it. i wana do the same thing, my front sags like a mother effer. I'm thinkin about possibly taking one leaf spring on each side to make the front look a lil bit higher, give it that pre runner look!

    I believe when the kit first came out it did have the adjustable bilstein shocks which is why they called it a 4-5 kit but now I believe the bilsteins that come with the kit aren't adjustable.

    On my 4" lift ( not RCD) I purchased the adj bilsteins seperate and set mine to .85 to give me an extra lil bit of lift so Im at 5" front and 4" rear. which is what I wanted

    So just read through this whole thread, from what i'm gathering, 17" wheel with 4.5 bs and a negative offset is recomended but I noticed some people were running 18" wheels with the rcd lift.

    Any issues with the 18" wheel fitting? What back spacing, offset and tire size are you running? any rubbing?

    Whats the largest tire size with the 17" and 18" wheel with no rubbing or trimming?

    Thanks :)

    i believe its the same deal with the 18inch rim as far as bs and specs but one of the other guys running 18's can prob give a better answer. As for tire I had 265/70/17 and had no issues on or offroad with zero trimming. I now have 285/70/17 and needed to do minor trimming but prob have to do more because i still rub if the wheels cranked and i hit a bump... Always a horrible sound lol

    Really...I don't suppose you still have stock uca's do you? Sounds like its not necessary to get rid of them but some people have replaced them for after market ones. Kinda confusing lol.

    Awesome, thanks!
