New Member Suspension Lift Question

hello. New member here. Long time ford owner turned titan owner. Tired of those darn ford transmissions lol. Anyways i have always had lifted trucks, and am inclined enough to install lifts, lowering kits etc...

With that beibg said, i wanted to get your opion on a lift setup i want to run on my 20055 titan 2wd SE CC. This is what setup i want to do...let me know if u think it will work or not.


Rough country 6" lift
08 4x4 front coils
Bilsteins on middle perch
Rough country upper control arms.
Of course the rear will be rough countrys supplied 5" block, will install carrier bearing bracket.

What amount of lift do u guys think ill be looking at? Will this be enough to clear 37's? Am i going to run into coil bucket contact, or have issues installing the strut assembly backup? Any help is appreciated, thanks alot.

Re: New Member Suspension Lift Question

You might be able to squeeze 37's. idk. The pwm will
Be needed. And a non aggressive offset. Otherwise prg has a 1.5" body lift that'll prolly give you the needed space. And it doesn't show frame rails at all.

Re: New Member Suspension Lift Question

also agree on spending the extra $$ on fabtech... i had an 8in cst (which is about 6"1/2 of lift) 3in body lift and coilovers and honestly... 37/38s woulda fit, but without my 3in body lift i dont think they would have......

Re: New Member Suspension Lift Question

i would go with 4" spindles, a 2" leveling kit, 4x4 springs, 5100's on middle. probably get 9" of lift. cheaper and easier install.

Re: New Member Suspension Lift Question

Fabtech lift is horrible. You have to cut and hack to install it right. It may sit taller. But Im not in to hacking my stuff up.

Your ride would be insanely stiff with a 2wd; you don't have the weight of the transfer case or front diff to balance out the 4wd springs. 4" spindles, 2" spacer, current coils on middle would be more firm than stock, but not harsh, and still plenty of height (7"-8")

I know, that's what I have. The ride is not stiff at all. Many 2wd have the 4x4 springs on the middle. The op is trying to clear 37's not gonna do it with 7-8"

Our definition of stiff must be different. My 5100's topped out hard with 08 4x4 coils on the middle.
