<-- this girl is desprate for advice! 2-3" Lift Kit on 95' K1500 4wd

[ChrisAU]

Would anyone in the room like to take a guess at why our truck have bumpstops? And what removing them can cause? It's not pretty.

As for the random clank the OP mentions, this may help:

(That has been made a sticky at TYF...that is how much the 2-3" RCX kit is hated.)

while i have read that, the OP of that thread completely installed their shock extenders incorrectly.

You know, I was talking to a local guy and he told me he ordered a 6" lift for his truck (which is already lifted 6".) He claimed he was gonna put 5" diff drop brackets ontop of 5" diff drop brackets.

dont let a roll get ya fired up if you have the kit post up pics to prove it! Lets see the cv angles and all that you speak. If you cant do that then there is no point of wasting away a thread argueing

His angles won't be bad. He's decranked.

im somewhat cranked, i sit at 42 3/4" from the ground with a 2" BL. I didnt necessarily buy it for height/lift. Mainly bought it so it'll fit where i live and ride nicer than a crank. i.e. the UCAs for more down travel. To me, it has accomplished this as well as held up to abuse in Pismo.

I agree with the others...dump this kit and go to the 4 or 6" Either one will work since they are essentially the same kit. They relocate the entire front suspension downwards around 5" with the new brackets in the kit. So once the suspension is set up the truck will ride the same as it did stock..just sit higher.

so you got your lift from the 2" body lift.... lol.

either way im above where i was cranked before the kit, not a lot but enough. I dont like rake so it allowed me crank to have a little lean and then i put the body lift on. Like i said, i am happy with it and its held up to what i've put it through and i have good suspension travel.

my truck sat around 39 stock. with minor crank to level. my angles were far more superior then what i had on my 6"
