Are you doing install yourself? Because if not a 5" springtech installed will come out to be about the same price as getting that bodylift combo installed. And for a like 200 more or so you can go full 6.5" springtech. Just something to think about. Suspension labor is generally cheaper than body lift labor because the work isn't as time consuming for a shop to do.

Is there a specific tire size you want to run?

 

Well, I am wanting something that looks bigger. I want it to look lifted but I dont want it lifted so high that I have to change all sorts of stuff on my truck. I am wanting to change my tires and wheels anyways. So maybe like 33's or 35's. I don't think I would install it myself, Im not sure. How difficult is it to install? Do you have a link to the Springtech lifts? I cant find them.

Also they sell them on ebay, that's where majority of us order them from. They're also sold under the name Canuck Motorsports, and they're the exact same as Doestch lifts with just a different name on it and for a couple hundred less, my control arms with my lift came in a Doestch box ha.

Install isn't too bad for a suspension lift if your good with tools, have patience, and all the tools you'll need. A body lift is a little more involved and usually a 2 day 2 man process. Again if you have the patience in and time it's not too bad, but if you want it done in a day a shop can knock it out pretty quick for you for either one.

Also do you know your stock gear ratio in your truck? They'res a axle code inside your driver side door jamb on a white sticker that has it listed, you can just google that to get your gear ratio.

 

I saw that white sticker and everything that was on it. But I didnt know which one is the gear ratio. My dad says it has a really good ratio on it. If someone could explain it I'll go look again.

 

 

It will say axle code and have something either listed below it or beside it, I don't remember. For example mine says axle code - H9 which translates to a 3.55ls. And a real good gear ratio for what? A good ratio depends on what the truck is used for.

Here's a chart, just scroll down to see it and use that to figure out what you have.

Sorry, Ive been at school. I looked at the stuff, its 3.55.

 

What are you tryin to prove?

 

Okay, that's definitely a good starting point then if you plan to go to 33's or 35's, you'll see some power loss and mpg loss but it won't be horrible. I average about 12-14mpg with 35's and all the stuff on my truck so you'll be somewhere around there with 35's and a little better with 33's.

 

nothing, i think it's funny you got your feelings hurt over me answering your question.

 

I don't have my feelins hurt, you just think your some badass tryin to talk **** over the internet... Pizzaman, I think because I am tight on money I am going to buy the lift and wait on the tires as of now. Will my truck look wierd with 265's with like a 3-5" lift?

 

where did i "talk ****" over the internet? i answered your questions

 

Nah it won't be that noticeable. And check craigslist for tires, I got my first set of 35s off there for a 100.
