6 inch lift on an 86 k30... help? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'd love to throw a 6 inch lift on my 86 one ton.... HOWEVER, I DO NOT want to mess around with drive shafts popping in and out and having to lengthen

well, not really. If anyone has put their 6 inch lift on, I'd love to hear what all you had to mess with besides the brake lines and steering box... oh and the shift linkage.... just interested in hearing about the drive shafts... the more information the merrier.

Also, I could get a t-case lowering kit so that I don't have to lengthen the drive shaft.... I THINK... will I have the most problems with the front or the rear drive shaft???

Thanks guys
