I’ve had my truck for about half a year and think I’m ready to lift it. Since its only 2wd and I don’t really do any offroading, occasional mild dirt roads going to some fishing spots and parks, I figured I would put 22s on 35s. Pretty much a mall crawler lol
I’ve done some research on the forum and it seems a 6” lift is needed to run this setup. So I had a few questions:
1. A spindle lift kit and leveling struts is all I need to lift the front? I’ve seen some 2wd kits and they include drop brackets but those involve cutting the frame and I’d rather avoid that.
2. For the struts and rear shocks would it even be worth it getting bilstein or even fox over rough country? Im on the road 99% of the time so I don’t know if the better shocks are going to be overkill for my daily driving. The rc struts also come loaded with the springs which will make the install easier since I will be doing it myself. Also if I do get some struts like 5100s would getting some orp springs help the ride quality since I wouldn’t have to preload the springs as much or would that be a waste money?
3. For the rear I was going to buy the either the zone or bds component boxes. I read they’re practically the same. Can someone confirm the parts are the same quality like the coil springs and the brackets.
