Will this work?

v8 sonoma · 10-01-2009, 04:25 AM

I got a 99 sonoma, xcab, 4.3 auto. dropped 4/5. looking to lift it. but the budget is pretty tight right now. I picked up a set of "gently used" 265/75-16 tires. that works out about 31.5" tall when new, but there about half worn. Do you guys think with Moog coils, AAL and a 2" or 3" BL ill clear them? Thanks for the help.

Fcs5664s coils, and either 2 or 3(you pick)" body lift, both will clear your 31.5" tire.

As for rear, AAL is pretty stiff , I'd recommend shackle first, unless you haul loads then AAL will be ideal for you.

Thank you. I have 2" shackles and an AAL sitting here so ill try about both. Doing the body lift what an i going to do other then lift the body? i already have an efan. brake lines should be able to be mended, gas filler neck, an electrical? im not worried about bumpers lining up.
