I know these threads are common and i have looked. I know RE is the best for their 5.5" lift. Right now I have 3.5 on 33s and im getting my rear done with 4.88s and i got a d30 with an OX, 1 ton steer, and 4.88s. So 35s are comming.
Im looking at the Rough Country long arm lifts. I was thinking of doing the 4.5" + 1" shackle and spacer. Or go with the 6.5" lift.
The thing is the shocks are not long enough for the 6.5" from what i have read plus the shock mounts on my axle have been lowered. I will get new shocks but for the time being i want it to be nice and flexy lol.
I am into the Low COG thing but I am just unsure of what route to take and opinions and comments are always nice.
Here is my truck about a year ago and has only changed a little, not lift wise though.
Thanks.

For the rear, use your 3.5 springs and get shackle relocation brackets and extended shackles.
Consider 4.5" of lift for 35's. 6.5" with 35's is not low COG

I think I might just go with the 4.5 la from Rc and If I rele feel like I need more I can spacer/ shackle it

As stated, LCOG is not running 6.5 lol.
3.5 for 35s.
The flatter the leafs, the better flex. I'd prob run 3" leafs and the relocation brackets. Should flex really well w/that.

So maybe these http://www.hdoffroadengineering.com/...relocation-kit with my 3.5 leafs and shackles for the rear and the front w. 4.5 coils and long arms
Or should i just get the whole 4.5 la kit with the add a leaf and shackles and just add the shackles

your in NY screw RC go local, either Rock Krawler or Clayton long arms.
IMO with long arms you want to be under 5 inches and 35s. 3.5 in leafs with JKS shackles and HD boxes will be nice and stable and flex like a dream.
IMO RCs long arm leaves a lot on the table as far as east coast wheeling goes like I said stay local with 2 companies that are based in the NE, Rock Krawler is from NY Clayton is in CT
