4" front lift, what for rear?

[acf6]

Question for you guys...got some 4" front springs for my truck. Haven't installed them yet, but I'm just wondering how you think I should lift the rear? Won't know for sure until I put the springs on and have some bro lean for a few days, but I was thinking 5" blocks and add a leafs? Want to make sure I get the right lift for the rear the first time so I don't have to buy u bolt twice. Thanks!

jack up your front 4 inches and then jack up the rear and see where you like it.

Ya, I want it to sit level because I'm gonna put airbags on eventually so no need to worry about sag. Just not sure what's the best way to lift the rear...and can't afford springs (maybe those procomp 22415s)

blocks

What size? You think 5" is enough, was planning on the OUO blocks that hold the u bolts

i got a 5 inch lift on my front end and ive got a 6 inch block in the rear. i contacted pmf fab for some blocks and there pretty good quality

Yea was actually planning on PMF, just didn't feel like starting a brand war

 

[ncollins64]

id say put the lift on the front first and then see where you need the rear imo

Sounds like a plan, thanks. I've heard about 50/50 on this, do I need drop track bar/pitman arm for a 4"? Already have an adjustable track bar in the garage.

is your adjustable trac bar made for up to a 4 inch lift? it may be enough. my trac bar drop bracket i had on with my 3.5 inch lift still worked with my 5 inch lift.

I ran a 6" block with my 4.5" lift and it sat dead level. I just installed a OUO 7" block and got a 1" rake now and I like it alot better than level
