I posted this on TTORA too with no responses, go YT!

I have done the Chevy swap in the rear and at first it provided a lot of lift to where it made the truck look uneven. I drove it like that and wheeled it and it has settled some and now looks more even. I have my shackles on the "lowest" setting and don't have the overloads in. I want to run 35's in the near future. I won't have problems in the rear seeing as how i can lift the truck more by the shackles, but in the front, with IFS, I guess I am going to have to do some spacers to even it out and get some clearance. I already have aftermarket coils and shocks up front and i'd rather not buy new ones so i guess spacers it is for now, but I wanted to show you all my situation. Please take a look at my lower arm angles and CV angles and tell me if you think spacers would make it dangerous. I have the 1" diff drop already. how big of spacers do you think i can safely go? Nevermind how the front looks like its leaning toward the drivers side, that is for another thread. thanks guy!

stick no more than 1" of material (spacer) in there

.375 should give .75-1.5" lift ... .5 2" of lift or more, and 1" spacer up to 2.75" lift... (based on my experience only)

thanks for the reply. is that general advice for everyone or is that based on the angle of my CVs as they are already? obviously from the slight lean, the passenger side has a more severe angle

that is general advice, to someone running a diff drop, for a DD...

from advice gleaned from the experiences of others read about here, and my own
