Are the rear shocks any longer than stock?

Hey Steve, mind tolerating a n00b lift question? Why are the rear coils longer on one side than the other?

No they are not. If you want longer shocks and ultimate performance, System 1 & 2 would be what you want as those rear shocks are 3.5" over stock.

The Old Man Emu N86 is 1" longer than stock. Back in the day that was a big deal. Not really anymore as the FZJ-80 shocks blew past that road block 4X further.

This would be for the guy that drives on the street most of the time.

Offset the weight of the gas tank.

But most of us can't afford to keep our tanks full.

If you want guaranteed results and the truck to sit level. Nothing even comes close. This is a very tired and true formula and it works every time.

Take a chance or get right the first time. The right lift height and level, the first time.

This is an awsome setup. The truck looks great and handles even better. I recommend this setup to anyone!

lr9788 · 11-20-2006, 08:25 AM

Am i correct in assuming this is for 4x4 only?

sschaefer3 · 11-20-2006, 08:37 AM

Yes. Our System 1 & 7 are both only for 4WD trucks. The only lift we have for 2WD trucks is System 3 which will lift your vehicle over 2" from where it sits now.

jonykarate · 11-29-2006, 12:56 PM

Does anyone have some pics of this setup? I have searched but only found a couple. I thought it would be nice if we had some pics to go along with the information posted above. Also, what are the biggest tire you guys are running with this lift? Did it require different wheels, shaving, etc?

gregbreakseverything · 11-29-2006, 06:08 PM

I put on some 265/75/16's. The truck looks great, and with a 3% tire size difference, there is no noticable difference in acceleration.
