4" suspension lift with 3" body lift

[Devious_Tahoe96]

I was gunna be a cheapo and get the $500 2.5" rcx lift because it was the easiest thing to save up for, but like bowtie said, just go with the 6". Your gunna regret getting something small when you could've gotten something bigger. Oh and the antenna problem....just shave it down so it doesn't hit anything

so everyone with a 6" lift what tire sizes u running?

 

[bowtiefreak]

35s...they look small on here. I may go to a 37 next. please remember it is a very good idea to regear when adding larger tires. it will save you a tranny.

so do u need to regear for 35s?

 

[96ProCompTahoe]

it would help out a ton to regear with 35's. i ran mine stock for a while on the 3.73's but it had no power. 4.56's or 4.88's if your running 35's+. lovin my 4.88's

 

[bowtiefreak]

I run 4.56 and would like a 4.88
