Hello All, I just raised/leveled (Ready Lift) the front of the vehicle today and I measured from the little dimple (hole) center of the axle to the bottom of the fender (shiny out edge). I got it at 24.5 inches but I would like to go up higher and have no rake. Is this ok to do as I have seen here in previous posts not to exceed 24.5 inches.If I did exceed that what could be the consequences? Thank you in advance, Gunz

 

you could go up a little more,did your lift include shock extenders,because that was really all you needed,if you dont have shock extenders,your ride will become really bouncy and you will not get the full lift

 

The ready lift extenders are only long enough to extend the travel of your stock shocks to that amount of extension. Go past is an your ride wull suffer. You should have saved the $$ on the ready lift, and instead bought some bilstein cognitos, your stock torsion bar keys can be adjusted to accomplish the same thing as the ready lift keys. [&o]

RE: Shocks

 

It did have the shock extenders and I was going to go with the Bilstien shocks and rasie it wiht the torsion barsbut could not pass up the dealI got for this kit. It is at 4.5 right now and I can not notice a single difference from when I purchased it. Maybe a tad stiffer but maybe it is becasue I expected it to be more stiff. I just thought maybe another 1/2 inch would set the truck completely level as it still has a very slight rake. I wanted to make sure I could so I guess from what yall say there maybemore there. Thanks fellows as tomorrow I will try another 1/2 inch, ride it around town then align it once I know it rides well and settled.

 

UPDATE: Just got it back from the dealer, replaced my headlight and adjusted them both; reinstalled the headliner (wasn't "snapped" into place apparently); changed the oil and put synthetic in it; had the front windows tinted to match the back(hell of a difference in the appearence); and had it aligned. Here are the numbers from the alignment incase anyone was wondering, just from cranking my t bars:

CAMBER: Left -1.3 Right -0.8
CASTER: 2.8 2.4
TOE: 0.640.59

CROSS CAMBER: -0.5
CROSS CASTER: 0.3
CROSS SAI 0.7
TOTAL TOE: 1.23
