Lift Me Up

Looking to be pointed in the right direction got info on lifting my truck. First I don't off road a ton just drive on the beach to fish thought out the year. Second I'm looking to put on 265/70/17 on after the lift so not looking to go over 3. I ran into a guy whose truck was at perfect height with same size tires that I want didn't get much info besides they were bilsteins set at I believe 1.5" in the front and rear (although looked to be a 3" Lift, idk) and to look for Marie on TW.. dont want to break the bank but at the same time not stooping down to rough country after all the bad things i hear.. pics and advice would be cool. Thanks

 

5100s and a set of lift coils for the front and either an AAL or new leaf packs for the back

Lift has less to do with tire fitment than wheel selection.

 

Ok thanks guys. I messaged Marie as well thanks. I was looking at all the full kits but was told i don't need to purchase the entire suspension kit which is good news cause some of them run 2k alone

 

The 5100+AAL suggested above should fit the bill.

 

I just had this installed. 5100s set at zero with headstrong coils up front and 5100s in rear with headstrong AAL in the rear. Couldn’t be happier with this setup except for the needle bearing issue which is a separate issue.

 

Any recommendations on brands for coils and/or AAL's? Don't haul a lot in the back no cab either and front just have a bull bar. Not planning on installing a new bumper or winch.

 

Looking for pretty much the exact same setup your looking for since I’m in Massachusetts and they are being really strict on lifts

 

I like my headstrong coils and AAL. The coils gave me just over 2” in the front and the AAL gave me around 1.5”. You can’t beat their prices either.

 

Did you happen to add the 1/4" spacer on the driver side? I'm doing the exact same setup, just don't have all the parts yet.

 

I did actually. The 1/4” spacer from headstrong. Both sides are just about dead even.

 

Perfect, I wasn't sure about it with only 2" of lift but I bought it anyway.

 

The headstrong coils gave me about 2.25” of lift but I’m guessing they will settle to about 2” but then again I have an access cab not a DC. The 1/4” spacer will give u about 1/2” of lift

 

As always thank you so much @Clearwater Bill
