Looks great! A couple of questions if you dont mind.So, I just got done installing this kit about a month ago and let me tell you....I Love it...Check out the pictures I posted.View attachment 25635
So the quality of ride is wonderful, I mean you cannot tell the difference except the height difference in taking turns. My depth perception had to change because of the height but I got used to it. As far as the air bags, no effect. The bags still work. Original with the bags and no lift the Truck came to 3" max height, now with the 5" lift, I get a total of 8" height all the way up. I hope that explains a little.Looks great! A couple of questions if you dont mind.
Any difference in ride quality?
What about the air suspension settings working properly?
Thanks!
What kit was used ? Air ride or non air ride ?
Did you use the rough country on the rebel 4x4 ?

cant wait to see it.Okay.....so ordered the RC 5" lift kit and will have it installed on Monday 8/5 with Fuel 22" wheels and Nitto 35" tires. Will post pics and hope to get measurements before and after for those interested
seems like with 8 inches of lift you would run 37s maybe even 38s with trimmingSo the quality of ride is wonderful, I mean you cannot tell the difference except the height difference in taking turns.

I was getting an average of 17 ish before lift and tires. With the RC lift and 35 Atturos, I'm closer to 14, but both of those averages are heavy city. On a long Hwy trip, with the new setup, I was closer to 19, but I've got a bit of a lead foot.What is everyone's experiencing for a derate in fuel economy? I'm expecting some, but would like to get an idea of how much.
Can anyone else who did this lift to their trucks please chime in about ride quality and overall impressions on the look, quality, durability of the RC lift for the air ride trucks. I want to do this same thing to my truck but looking for more details and pics too please.. thanks
