    I've been running RC 2" aluminum alloy spacers for about a year now and I've never had any problems

    Nice! Finally someone that cares about the ride quality and CV angles! Well done brother! Truck is looking good! As other said, Bora would be the spacer to go to!

    The best spacer would be BORA. They have a hub centric ring to keep the wheel weight balanced throughout

    • @THEEVERYTHINGTHINGCHANNEL
      @THEEVERYTHINGTHINGCHANNEL 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      the ring is to keep the wheel centered and not put the weight of the vehicle off of the studs.

    So with a 4 inch RC lift you could actually get 6 inches with aftermarket keys? I'm try I g to clear 33s with 2 inch adapters. Looking into getting a lift kit. Just have no clue what i should get.

    • @larrybanks867
      @larrybanks867 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m a year late but however much the keys lift it add that and however big the lift is like 3 inch keys and a 6 inch lift is 9 inches in the front you do run a risk of messing your suspension up tho

  • @DoubleRRestorations

    New subscriber here. I have an 03, that I want to either use the same lift or at least level it. I'm also nervous about the front diff.
    On your other vid, you were looking for a powder coater. I have a great powder coater that I use for my large items on my Camaro project near Wytheville. I'm in the NRV. Great channel.

    How does the truck drive now with the torsion bars moved in the location? Be totally honest, does it turn mushy, differently overall, because now the torsion bar is being difentely pushed more than twisted. be honest! There's a company that has a kit to do the exact thing, moving it up. Ya, I like it being up , and out of the way, cleaner! Thanx! I'll try not to bother any more.

    • @daltongill
      @daltongill 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The 4" suspension lift is really the most optimal lift kit to have on a truck strictly based on the structural integrity of the build. Not only does it create enough room to run 35×12 tires, but the design and 4" length allow the truck to operate per usual avoiding less stress/damage on CV's/Ball joints etc. The build of the truck's frame, suspension, and entire wheel assembly is still really solid. More lift=more stress on mechanical integrity. Yea it looks nice and all, but it must be well taken care of and not rode hard to prevent breaking something.

      For example, look up a pic of an 05'-06' duramax on a 4" lift, and then look at one with 6" and above on it. Which one looks like it's sitting more solidly and built to last? You'll see what i mean

    • @jacobn3160
      @jacobn3160 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lifts usually make the truck almost perfectly level. If not for some reason you can crank your torsion keys a little or get a smaller rear block to make it level. Rough country is fine, I’d recommend bilstein shocks though. The rough country ones aren’t great, but get the job done

      I just ordered the 6 inch lift for my 04 Tahoe. When I received it I began to inventory it and the first set of instructions and inventory booklet was listed for 99-06 pickup 4wd. Initially I was confused but after continuing to do the inventory, I realized that the front parts are exactly the same. The only parts that are different are the rear. The pickup uses lift blocks and the Tahoe uses lifted springs. Here is the link for the inventory and instruction sheet for the 2000-2006 Tahoe. s3.amazonaws.com/roughcountry/install/280n2.pdf and here is the link for the 99-06 pickup. s3.amazonaws.com/roughcountry/install/921272X00.pdf Check them both out and compare them and you'll see that they are the same. Hope this helps.
