Having a hard time figuring out lifts, every time i think i have it figured out i find something else that changes my mind. just looking on some advice. right now its between a TF 2.5" coil with a 1" PA body lift, and a 4" RC lift. seems like the 3-4" range is what im looking at. dont want to get into driveline issues. but want enough lift to run 35" with no rub.( not a huge fan of the trimed fenders)
i have a 2009 6 speed x . what do you guys think or suggest?

 

You are much less likely to run into driveshaft issues with this:

TF 2.5" coil with a 1" PA body lift

Than with this:

4" RC lift

If stock driveshafts are the selling point, the choice is pretty clear.

(and even with the TF 2.5, with an 'actual' lift height in the 3-3.5" range, you could still find yourself needing at least one new shaft...)

 

with the 1" body lift, how hard is it to the the rear bumber gap elimination, i have seen the write up but wondering how hard it actualy is. sorry for all the simple questions haha in new to all this.

Scroll down to Planmans post, and check his links also...

 

also with the 1" bodylift do you HAVE to trim the inside shift boot, or is it just recomended?

 

Check out this thread for some info as well. I thought i had it all figured out until I put up this thread.

By the time the conversation was over I had settled on the TeraFlex 2.5" Coil with the adjustable arms to roll 35s.

I actually sold my 2 door and am now rolling a 2010 4 door so the rules are slightly different. I am still going to go with TeraFlex as they offer excellent customer service and I have yet to read anything negative about their products.

Cheers,

 

thanks for all the great/fast input, im leaning to the TF 2.5" coil lift and the 1" body now. still wondering if you HAVE to cut inner shift boot, or is it just recomended. thx

 

If at all possible I would avoid a BL. Just my .02

 

I would check into Old Man Emu. Great all around quality lift, allows 35's, and drives awesome as a daily driver. No drive line mods required other than poss adj. trac bars.

 

why would you not do the body lift
