So I have a rustys 4.5 short arm advanced kit and was thinking of going bigger to 6.5 inches of lift. Rustys says I would need there budget boost kit front coil spacers and lift shackels and longer lower control arms. My question is, is 6.5 to much for a short arm on 33s wheelin? I know I'd need a drop pitman arm and track bar drop bracket also. Thanks guys.

Oh H3LL yes.
Short arms at that height ride like a$$.

Longarms or don't even bother.

fannitti

Thought so. But if I go long arm can I still do spacer and shackels?

Yeah, and shackle relocation brackets would be best. Don't forget brakelines, and shocks. I'm assuming you have a SYE, yes? Might need longer driveshafts if you're going to be doing much wheelin.

Why a 6.5 lift are you going bigger tires?You can run 35s with a 4.5 to 5.5 inch with cut out flares.Other things to also budget for is a sye and longer brake lines.

fannitti

i got longer brake lines now with 4.5 if i go 6.5 ill need even longer ones?

SeriousOffroad

Yes, especially if you install long arms.
