lift difference

hey guys just wonderin i made up my mind to lift . My question though is i can get a 3in sus lift for 505 installed or a 2in in front level installed for 396 what should i do. i was told its only an inch and you really cant tell so save the money towards tires maybe. the level is not as hard on your suspension part u joints etc.... im in a pickle and am looking to do something within the next few weeks. thanks.

 

Which suspension lift are you looking at? Just based off the information provided I would say 3". Just because you can fit bigger tires with less clearance issues.

 

the truxx 3in lift

 

if you go with the 2 inch lift you can fit 275 70 17s on your stock wheels without it looking too small.
if you go with a 3" lift youll want to go with a 285 70 17 to fill the wheelwell. But you cant use your stock rims with a 285 (UCA clearance) and you cant keep your mudflaps.
Take this into consideration and your looking at a much more expensive option to go for that extra inch.

 

is it worth the extra money for that inch is it that noticable?

 

i find the 3 inch lifts have too much wheelwell showing even with a 33" tyre. Up to you. There are tons of pics on here with 2" vs 3". I chose 2" and have 275 70 17s.

 

Bilsteins set at 2.5 and an aal in the back with 265/75/16 tires. Thats my setup im installing on tuesday. If you get a 3" suspension lift, you will most likely need to buy an aftermarket uca which will be around 400-500. The UCA will let you get an alignment in spec. Thats why i decided on the bilsteins. Ive done the research like you are trying now and thats what i have decided on.
