Is the zone lift a true 6"?

Has anyone measured the zone 6" lift to see how much actual drop it is? I know that the RCX kit only has a 5" drop, requiring the torsion be turned up 1". Is the zone the same way or is it a true 6"?

I don't know of anyone on the site that is running the zone lift but someone might know the answer.

Your best bet might be to send Zone an e-mail and ask them.

ok great, Thanks. Can you also ask them what the rear lift consist of? Is it a 5", 5.5", or what size rear block?

if its got a 5 inch block id say its a 5 inch drop in the front

If it is a full 6" drop and you set it dead on 6" in the front you will still have around 1-1.5" of rake, still very possible that it is 6" of diff drop. The GMT800 kits are almost exactly 6" diff drop IIRC.

You cant base the front drop on how much it lifts the rear. I wish it was that easy. For example the old DC 6.5 kits only came with a 4 3/4" rear blocks, and eventually they swapped to a 5.5 block. The new RCX kits come with a 4" block and 2" Add-a-leaf for the rear and the front is only dropped 5".
