Does anyone have opinions/ comments on a Performance Accessories 3" body lift? found one with all paperwork and mounts for $100.
Also what do you guys think of trailmaster add-a-leafs? it is a 2". brand new for $75. Any comments/ideas appreciated.
I also found some 1" wheel spacers that would fit my truck. Do these screw with anything or would it be fine with the 3" body lift? Just trying to make my truck look mean!
Thanks everybody

 

Body lifts are fine as long as they are installed correctly. And with add-a-leafs don't expect the total lift they claim but they are close and easy to install. I am running 1.5 inch spacers on my truck with no problems but if you go to wide they will stress out hub assemblies but to install spacers you have to cut your wheel studs down so the rims will seat correctly.

 

Ya if I get it I will install it myself with the help of my neighbor who is a mechanic so it should go smoothly. I'm not necessarily looking for lift height with the add a leafs but does it help the ride and suspension? And you said you have 1.5 spacers, so will 1 inch not stress anything out?

 

It will but not so much where you will be going through parts like crazy, just running wider rims with negative offset will put some strain on the hubs, but with 1" you'll be fine but IMO i would not go any more than 1.5". And yes the add a leaf will stiffen the suspension up a bit.

 

Alright not sure if I wanna do the spacer or not but what is a way I could get that meaner look that wider tires give?

 

Wider rims w/ neg. offset

 

How much lift did you get out of your AAL's?
