4" Rancho 3" Body - Anyone running this?

U

uneek

GUEST
I currently am running a 4" Rancho Suspenion KIT on my 2500 Avalanche. I am able to clear 33" tires w/o rubbing, but now that the tires of starting to go low on tred - I am thinking of slapping on a 3" Body Lift in order to go up a little higher. I was wondering if anyone was running the 4" and 3" combo? If so, how does it ride? Any pictures? Any information will be helpful so I can decide to either just buy new tires/rims - or go up in both height and tire size. Let me know - anything will be appericated. Thanks!
 
I think your out of luck right now. As of 2 weeks ago (last time I checked) Performance Accessories does not make a body lift for the 2500 :8: I haven't come across any other manufacture of body kits for the AV yet. I'd ask them but I would guess the difference between 1500/2500 is the bumper mounts. If your crafty a 1500 kit may work but then again......It ain't my money and truck, good luck anyway

I've yet to run across that type of setup on an AV. But I was thinking the same thing when my rubber ran out. Swapping for the 35's and a 3 inch b/l.

check out fullsizechevy.com. There are many 6inch lifted trucks with 3 inch b/ls. Very nicely done. No AV's though...

Mud!
 
Im running 37 swampers with a 8inch lift and 3 inch body lift, i was running 35 swampers with just the 8 inch suspension lift, but wanted to bump up, I liked both rides, but i wanted to get a little higher
 
I spoke to a local off-road shop here in San Antonio, he said he did a 4" Rancho Lift & a 3" Body on an Avalanche and it sat on 35"s. I saw the pictures and it definately looked extremely nice. I really do want to go up to 35"s and sit a little bit higher - but I'm not sure if it can be done quite yet w/ the 2500 series. I am pretty sure it can, but I haven't heard anything offically. My tred is starting to go down on my tires and I told myself (like MudBugz71) - that I would go a lil' bit higher when the time came for some new tires. Hopefully things will work out and I can get it done.
 
I'd like to see pics of this also...considering a little bit of a lift myself to get the 35's on. 4WheelParts won't do the body lift anymore if you have a suspension lift due to legal battles. Looking for a shop in DFW area that will install one for me(if anyone has any info). Thanks!

Would like to see pics of CJI's Av too...any on this site?? Thanks!
 
any other lift shop besides 4wheelparts can do a body lift for a 1500, I havent seen kits for the 2500,
i dont understand why they wont do the body lift though, I'm a delaer in so cali and i buy my parts through the distributer transamerican wholesale and they own 4wheelparts the retail store.
the pictures are coming I promise lol >:D
 
Does any one know what the best 3 or 4 inch suspension lift to put under mu Av would be and has anyone done it then selves? I want to see, i just went from a f--- f--- super crewand i could see forever. Now that i have my product of choice back again i still want to see.
 
Here is my Av Before the 37s and 3 inch body Lift, I gota find a camera so I can get my new pics up

Is that a 4" and a 3"? If not, what kind of setup is that. That looks like a 4 and a 3 on 35's, but I might be wrong. I'd also like to see your pics of the new one.
 
I believe he said that was 35" on just an 8" susp lift. Hopefully cj will post the pics of his 37s on the 8" + 3" body lift soon!
