Whats up guys, gonna pull the trigger on a silverado 1500 and i'm going to put a 6-8 lift on with 35's! I really will never use 4wd so i'm thinking of going the 2wd route, is there any difference lifting a 2wd? Any lift recomendations?

 

[johndoe07]

its the same but a little easier in the front end, i have a 2wd and i like ot, but i would get a 4wd if i were you

if you dont need the 4wd, dont get it. As far as lift quality, absolutely no difference between a 4wd and 2wd. Price and installation will be much easier though.

as soon as you get a 2wd you will need a 4wd. I was in the same boat as you and thought that since I dont offroad any I wouldnt need a 4wd. wound up getting a 4wd and have needed it more than a few times.

John your truck is the tits, def the look i'm going for! I heard that on 2wd if you lift more than 6 inches you need to start replacing parts unlike on a 4wd..

4wd is like a condom, better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it

I think im going to go with the fts 7' lift, can i add a spacer for more front lift? Will i need to trim with 35 toyo mts?

 

[FTSSHOCKS]

You can add a spacer to it , and as for the 35" toyo as long as you go with a 10" wide wheel , if you go 12" wide you will need to trim slightly

 

[johndoe07]

i have the 7" fts, yes u can add a spacer, mine has 1.5" strut spacers. i also have a 3" body lift, the tires in the pic are 35's on 20x12 wheels..fts is awesome

I found my dream truck in everything I wanted but 4wd, and now i wish it was 4wd for that random time you really need it.
