Default 2020 4x4 5.0 4” fox lift 33” tires



4” and “6 pretty much same lift. I want my tires to tuck flush with the fenders. This is what I’m looking at. I want it to fit in my garage it’s around 6’-9”. Any help is appreciated. Anyone have the same build ? Looking for options.

You can run those wheels and tires on the regular fox 2.0 leveling system.

I know. Want to be tall as possible and still fit in the garage. I think 4” and 35” might be over 6’9”.

Measure you truck now.
Add 6". Add the radius of your larger tire. With a 6" lift you're probably running a 35" minimum tire (not sure the goal of a 6" lift with basically stock size tires). That's about 1.5" taller than stock. Therefore, add 7.5" to the height of your truck, including antennas, satellite antenna, etc.

You will be the first to fit a 6" lifted truck in a standard garage though.
I lifted a 1993 with a 4" Rancho and 32" tire. I cleared my door by a little, including cab light clearance. Add a few inches for larger tires and a few more for the 6" lift -it ain't fitting. I am fairly certain new models are taller than the 1993 was.

Don't forget to take into consideration the garage door arm that extends down when door is raised (if you have an electric door opener). Especially if you have a glass roof. Probably not going to run into it, but you may not be able to jack the truck up at all if you have have to/want to/need to.

A 4" lift with basically stock tires should fit in a standard garage. Again though, it's on YOU to ensure that.
One easy test is to construct a way to lower your current opening then drive under it.
I hung a 4' level with a piece of string from the header and drove in/out, forward and reverse and my truck fit. If you can hang something 7.5" lower, drive into the garage and not hit the thing you hung, you'll be on the right path.
My driveway is very sloped, I had to drive into the garage in forward and reverse to take into consideration the cab/header interference based on the approach angle that changes forward to reverse.

I would not install a 6" kit on a 2020 model with only 33" tires.

If you want to know if it will fit in your garage, measure the garage, measure the truck, then see how much lift you can add.

6" lift with skinny 33"s sounds silly to me. But its all about what you want.

18mm will not sit flush, it will poke about an 1", little less. My +20 offset poke a little.

I would do the 4” lift and I would rather go bigger width on rims, but hard time finding off set that would leave the rim close to flush. I like the chrome rim look. Just trying to find the right set up. Thanks for the input, if you know of any rims that finish flush and chrome that be greatly appreciated

You can run them on the factory suspension as well.
