what else do i need to do to the truck to have this lift and what should i do on the front?

thanks!

A roll cage.

 

haha already got an exo cage

 

kinda odd that ive never been into trucks till now and that company is about 30 mins from my location... interesting..

 

haha taken off the site

 

Well gage those appear to be front springs not rears... I would contact the mfg. and ask them. Looks like a pretty good selection of goodies they have there thanks for the link.

Gotta ask though why'd you want to be so high in the air?

 

You gotta remember lifting the truck doesn't do anything for the diff clearance. It's all about the tire size. We lift to fit tires.

 

Haha, I saw your post on Pirate4x4 and the carnage that followed

I agree with them though, 9" is way to high unless youve got 1 ton axles to keep some stability...ive got 6" of lift on 38's and im tryin to get lower cause its crazy top heavy.

 

Ya if you're planning on wheeling it, id say don't go with that much lift! I had 8 inches of lift when I first built mine on 36s and it was super tippy

 

Well said. I recommend looking at some of the 'build-ups' on the site - you will notice many of the 'hardcore' builds are progressively trying to limit vehilce height while gaining suspension travel. ie. a low center of gravity translates into greater stability off-road.
What is also interesting is all of the driveline lifts people are doing. Less to hang up, but decreases center of gravity. I think there is a fine balance here somewhere. And what a lot others have said - It really depends on what you plan on using your truck for.

Cheers.
