Default lift kits

i am going to get the 4.5 in bds full spring long arm kit but i would rather have a 6 in lift, it would probilly be a 6.5 in the back and a 7 in the front. So could i keep my leveling kit in and just put the new coils on and get a 2 in block for the back? I could clear 37s with that set up if it would work. Also would i need to get my drive shafts longer?

I'm running 37's with 6in front/5in rear. Fits really good, I might actually take 2in off each corner.

, yes we are. I was wondering what the chances were of this thread popping up in 2 different forums at the same time. I'm madmikeismad on about 10 different places.

I agree with takin two off. It looks like you have a TON of room. Or you could just go bigger on the tires

Nah, if I got taller tires, That would make towing almost completely impossible. And humvee tires are cheap, so I'll stick with those
