Zone offroad 3inch lift

[99GoldRunner]

Very smooth, I upgraded to the Rancho 9000xl shocks and that made a huge difference. I am planning going up to 34 inchers in the next couple of weeks so I will update after the bigger tire install.

what size tires you got now and are the ranchos just the in the rear?

Right now I am running 32s, until I can get the money to buy 5.56 gears with rear locking diff and 34.5s. I try to do it right the first time.

I have Ranchos at all four corners... (I wanted to be more clear)

Looks like you ended up buying the Performance Acc 3 " body lift. Just for future reference, because of the mid-year change over to the GMT800 platform in 99 Zone chose to use 98 as the last year for their GMT400 platform lift kits. That being Zone C9316 3" body lift fits the 99 old body style and the Zone C9315 3" body lift fits the new.

I'm thinking about buying the Zone 2" block and torsion key for my Tahoe. I'm really only looking to stuff 285/70/17's underneath. Anybody hear any feed back on that kit?

If I go with 35s will I have to change the gear ratio? I know I will get extra ground clearance out of the 35s but will I loose the flex/articulation from the IFS? Will the 35s look too "stuffed" inside the wheel well? ANY PICS of this same scenario?

Thanks for the feedback.

IFS doesnt have very much flex or articulation. and it would be a good idea to swap the gears if ur gonna run 35s. I ran 35s with 342 gears for a couple months and it was too much strain on the vehicle. it ran way better after the gear swap.
