Can I get any more lift?

[littleblueranger]

First off I have a 2002 2wd edge with a 3'' body lift. So far the lifting list includes....

Rear: 6'' blocks and an add-a-leaf with 2.5'' leaf spring drop shackles.
Front: 3'' Fabtech spindles and torrsion bars cranked up.

The truck sits level and currently has 33''s. I will be ordering 35''s once my axle swap is complete.

Question is what is left I can do to lift the truck more? Mainly the front, the rear is easy. Are there any aftermarket upper control arms that would help? Anything that easy, or if I want more lift will i need to change the front suspension entirley?

why do you need to go higher? and you honestly have a 6" lift block in the rear? SKETCHY.

Very true, but not quite ready for that leap. The truck is a daily driver. The sas and v-8 are in the plans further down the road.

so why do you NEED more lift w/ a 9 inch lift already??

Correction, its actually a 5'' block. I havn't had any problems at all with them. I have strong u-bolts, everythings lined up good, locktite applided and fingers crossed.

i'd be worried more about axle wrap damaging your leaf springs...

but really, with 9" of lift, why do you need more?

You are pretty much done for the front. You will need a long travel kit if you want more lift.

No more lift, Bro.....too dangerous...you are near the tip over zone, Bro!!!! It looks great the way it is....you don't want to be looking like some clown around town!! Enjoy it the way it is...if you really want those 35's do some trimming (cut out flares) and you will be more stable for sure.

I feel the amount of lift you already have is silly...Especially those blocks... Lots of room for leverage against your springs.
If you want a truck that'll go places, its gotta be a 4x4...
What gears are you running to have 33s with the 3.0? Might need new ones for the 35s...
