needing help with what kind and where ( LIFT KITS )???

[drmiles]

Sky Jacker 5.5
Nitto Mud grappler 38 x 18 x 15.5

I was looking to buy the Sky Jacker because of no cutting or welding but it looks like Dr. Miles has the stock front end rack that I want to get rid of but on Salt Lakes and James they appear to have lost that can some one shine some help me out on this?

Soc...those tires almost look small with that lift! Amazing that the H2 can make 37's look small. Do you need to do any other mods if you lift? Driveshaft? Does a lift give you driveline vibes?

so is there any 2 inch lifts out there , dont want to go up to 4 inch , if i crankup the torsion bars it would ride stiffer so thats the reason for wanting a lift and that way it will still fit in my garage

[drmiles]

Suspension lifts are merely spacers in between the suspension components. They don't change the ride. They do change cornering due to increased center of gravity!!! If you tighten torsion bars for more tire clearance then of course the ride stiffens.

Fab Tech and Skyjacker offer bolt on no cutting kits. I think Rancho is the same.

No need for a lift in order to run 37's.
If you're gonna lift it, for a little more, you might as well go with a 6 inch and 38's.

IMO

James-

Just when I thought you couldn't sink any lower into Blingdom, you go and to do some thing like this. . .

AND totally redeem yourself. It looks much better.

5.5 Skyjacker lift, Nitto Mudgrappler 38 x15.5 x 18. Ride is ablut the same some vibration from the tire lugs at speeds 0 -10 mph. Loud humming with windows down. Windows up I barely hear the tires. Does seem to get louder as the wear more. No vibration, pulling, shaking, and no problem balancing or with wear. Overall best mod I've done. Love it more each time I see it.

i have the 4" rancho and 37's and love it, it handles all i can throw at it just fine.

[drmiles]

Yeah I agree both options would Increase my towing ability. My theroy is you can never have too much horsepower!!! So I'm looking into SC's now and regearing later if needed. Also want a front locker added when and if I regear.
It was suggested the 4:10 to 4:88 would not be noticeable. So I am waiting for the 5:13'S to come out.

[JamesT]

These.

Mine now with new BIGGER SHOES! What do you think now Longhorn?

[PhillyPhreak]

Did any of you guys re-gear?? What was the best price on the lift? The dealer installed it for you?

[JamesT]

As a matter of fact, today Toyo 38 MT's are being slapped on. I'll post some pics tormorrow. BTW...you are 100% right!

I put the Rancho 4" lift on my H2 and I am very happy with the look and ride quality. My friend installed the FAB Tech 6" lift, and his rides very good as well. We measured the two trucks side by side and the Fabtech lift was only 1" higher than the Rancho lift. The tires were both 37's, so it really boils down to preference of manuafacturer.

[superbeast]

i was told you can run 37's stock but i would think a little more hieght would look alittle better thats why i was asking about a 2 inch
