do i need to modify the driveshaft after 6in suspension lift?

mazdamama · Sep 8, 2008

i am planning on getting the skyjacker complete 6 inch lift, will i need longer radius arms, and also will i have to get a larger driveshaft for my single cab? it looks like it wouldnt fit my truck if i gave it that big of a suspension lift, and if it still fit, i think the joints would be at a terrible angle.

if you have an extended cab, then you will want to get a driveshaft from a '98 extended cab 4x4 and swap it in.

The drive shaft you have will work fine too.

No you shouldn't need to swap driveshafts on a regular cab truck.

As for radius arms... that's your call. Do you need the extra travel they offer for better performance offroad? Or will it be mostly for looks (no more than mild offroading)?

If the latter, then you can skip the arms if you want.
