does the 2.5" spacer in the front really wear out your cv joints, or what if are there any side effects from the 2.5" spacer?

cause i wanna go with a body lift or that, i just cant afford to start all over with a rize even though i shoulda done that in the first place lol just didnt really know squat about any of this at first

Depends on how hard you are going to wheel... Do a 2" spacer or get some coil-overs and crank them.

Kick *** FX4 you said your were still running stock gears and getting 11-14 thats not to bad at all but thats what i am at now so i am concerned it will go down alot with the 4.88's and the 37's?


As far as a spacer I have had no problems with my 2.5 spacer everything seems to be just fine....I would like to get some coilovers as well and crank em up..only prob the guy who does all my work sais that they come from the factory with a setting and he said it's not safe to crank em up?

Well right now I dont fit inside my garage or even some parking garages i haven't mesured my height yet but I know I cant quite make it in my garage. which is perfectly fine with me more time for people to drive by and admire!!

If you get 37s and 4.88s, you're gas mileage isn't going to go down .. at worst it'll stay the same.

Well, he's wrong. It is perfectly safe to crank a coilover, why else would they make them adjustable!? The coilovers are already valved per application.

Is anyone running 37s with 4:56 gears. I do alot of highway driving but still want to have the power to play in the mud and pull all my toys around. Can someone help with 4:56s.

Hey Synergy, Why are you going with the body lift to fit the 37" tires....You should be able to squeeze them in there with what you are running now.....You will have a little rubbing on a upward sloping turn but you can just do very minor trimming to fix that....

This guy did it, and i talked to him and he said it was very minor trimming....Just a thought if you werent really sure about the body lift

Im planning on running 37"s without the body lift and ill do the minor trimming if i have to
