rcd with 37???

does anyone know if I can sqeeze anymore inches out of my RCD 6" lift? I really want 37 when i buy new tires. my wheels now have 4.75" backspace, but the ones i will bet getting when i buy new tires have 5" backspacing. if i was to get the fabtech coilovers along with uniball UCAs and raise it up in the front about 1.5-2 inches over the 6". do you think they will fit? I dont want a bodylift in any shape form or fashion. heard and seen bad things when people do bodylifts and actully drive there truck offroad.

good question is...are you 2WD or 4WD. if you are 4WD you will be fine with the coilovers cranked. If you are 2WD with coilovers cranked you may need to trim a little bit, but you should be fine with the 5"s of backspacing on the wheels. Go for it.

So get the coilovers and lift the rear more with a new leaf pack or add-a-leaf.

I wouldn't spend the money on the UCAs before getting a Deaver leaf pack or the like.

I'm not how big it is, it's the biggest size they sold at my store, I actually had to trim it to fit. It's a store in Daytona Beach that sells a LOT of Gator stuff. Pretty much all Gator stuff.
