Trail gear front lift 5" pinion issues ???
Hi guys thinking about doing some more upgrading to my beast . I was reading the instructions on TG lift and it says you should use a high pinion third . I never knew this and was wondering what everyone was doing with there's ??

I can see the reasoning in that. Not that everyone does it though. WabFab just finished doing a rear 4" on mine and it is tall. I know it will settle a bit, but its much bigger than I would have thought. And remember, with a 5" spring, you will get 6" of lift due to the TG shackle that comes with it. And I'm not sure if any additional lift is gained with the addition of the new front hanger. So, it will be tall... Plenty for 37s...

Dude thanks so much for the info ... I think maybe I should be considering a 4" kit . I really just wanna clear 35's and be able to flex em out good . Is there any pics of your new setup on YT yet ?

No pics up yet. Wabbit has some on his FB page I think. I will get around to it soon though. You can see a before pic in my avatar with the saggy, flat springs. Now my 33s look small. I will be upgrading to 35s pretty soon. Just hard to convince my gal that I need new 35x12.50x17s with new wheels.... when my 33s still have half the tread left... And that's with 60K miles...
