    ok
    Got my Rough Country 6" lift kit installed. First off have too say i love it. Used to have s 3" suspension lift OME 885X coils and add a leaf but this just puts it too shame lol.

    Have it with 17" Mickey Thompson black Revolvers and 35" Nittos

    My question is two fold.
    (1) is that when taking out old lift too install new they left in the add a leaf in rear. So truck sits alittle a** high. 27" upfront 28" in rear. They used as there supposed too the original OE coils up front with bilstein 5100 struts. Question... Can i raise them an inch to compensate for the difference in height?

    (2) when doing my alignment they said my cam bolts are maxed out and my alignment too me is still kinda all over. They told me just nature of the beast with big wide tires. Rims are 17x9 tires a 35x12.50r17. Stock uca's. Question....Would getting aftermarket UCA's solve this issue?

    Other than thoose questions i love this lift. I know some dont. But so far and yes its early but i think its good.

    Thanks Guys

    I'm looking at getting the same lift on my truck with the nitro N2.0 struts for the front to use instead of using spacers. How do you like the ride so far? And how is it driving around with 35's? Many people are trying to talk me out of getting 35's because I'll loose power and gas milage. How has this been for you?
