Re: lift question???

I am thinking by the pics that its looks about a 6" lift. Should be able to clear 35's without any issues. If you measure to the bottom of your rockers to the ground, I will do the same. I have the same spring combo and 33's, so in theory it should be close.

Looks to me like a 4" suspension with a 3" body lift. ...Joe

Re: lift question???

To me it looks like a 3/4 with 4" lift.....and maybe a 2" body lift. Your front valance gives that away. it should be completely under the front bumper.... which I never really got because those bumpers are pretty damn easy to lift up
