4.5" Lift to 5.5" Question
I currently have a 2wd with a 4.5 Rought Country lift, adj trac bars, adj upper and lower control arms and full leaf packs in the back. I want to add a 1" shackle in the back to help the rear (shakles are binded forward due to the springs being short or new). If i did that to the rear, and did a 1" spacer in the front, would I still be able to run the stock drive shaft? I have no problems with it right now at 4.5". I was told that the 2wd has a longer tail on the driveshaft. Does anyone have any input at all on this?
Thanks in advance!

You dont have a transfer case cause your 2wd, and your kit didnt come with break line extensions? Did you get an alignment?

I dont have any vibes right now...my tcase drop has not been installed either. As for brake lines, mine have plenty...i have extended ones from my lift kit.
Does anyone know the measurements for control arms for 5.5 or 6?

I was looking at it and I think I got more than 4.5inches. If I remember correctly from the center of the hub to the fender was like 23 or 24 inches.
