Re: how much lift with a 3" Z

Hey there. I'm new to trucks but from what I have read was that with the front of the frame z 3" you will be able to lay the rockers instead of laying the crossmember with just your arms cupped. Hope that helps

The amount of lift you will get doesn't have anything to do with the size of the Z. Your lift will be determined by how your front bags are mounted.

^^^What that guy said! Also, your shocks could limit your amount of lift as well. I know thats what stops mine from going any further, not the bags.
