Lift Kit question???
« on: Jun 25, 2006, 04:54:33 PM »
I was thinking about upgrading to a 7 inch superlift all suspension.  What all will I need to change when I install it?  I know I will need cross over steering, and extend my front driveline, do I have to extend my rear too?  Any info on 7 inch lifts would be nice.
When in doubt, throttle out!!!

what size tire are you going to run? 7" lift sounds like overkill......

7 inch lifts on 85's with running 36's look badass. Looks alot better than guys with ifs putting a 4 inch suspension lift with a 3 inch body lift.

before my truck was used only for wheeling, i had a superlift lift not the 7 inch but when i was looking it up superlift says you need to modify both drivelines for their 7 inch lift.
