    Why do people keep taking the ball joint loose in these vids. Does the lift require it for re-installation? Because it certainly is NOT needed to remove and install the strut itself.

    did it have the same kind of puck in the rear, just shorter? or what did it have before the 3" inch change?

    I have a question when using strut spacers do you need bigger ucas, I’m putting a 3 inch strut spacers on and was wondering if I need bigger ones. 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500.

    On the rear... undo the lower shock bolts, sway bar links and the axle will drop down giving you room to install thr spring spacers.....

      How did that workout? I ordered a 3.5 inch lift kit not knowing that it wasn't compatible with the autoride suspension, so now the lift kit and wheels and tires are just sitting and collecting dust. I'm thinking about getting a conversion kit so I can get these wheels on. Any pointers?

      I have an 07 that has the air ride suspension. I bought a rough country 3.5 inch kit not knowing that it wasn't compatible with the air suspension. So now my $3500 worth of wheels and tires are just sitting and collecting dust. I'm looking at getting a conversion kit from strut masters if the lift kit will work with it. Otherwise I will be spending thousands more for a name brand suspension.

    • @Sparrow350
      @Sparrow350 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just got some 22×12 -44 wheels and unless I'm going to be driving in a straight line every where I go, they aren't going to work. I got a 3.5 inch rough country kit to help with the fit, but it is not compatible because I have the LTZ model that has air ride suspension. Now I'm stuck trying to figure this out without spending 2 or 3 more grand. What did you end up doing and how did you make your wheels work before you got the lift?
