im just wondering for future ideas, if i got more lift i would go to 5", right now i have 4" rear packs, and 3" springs with a 3/4 spacer. im gonna get an sye and driveshaft this summer, as well as some extended steel braided break lines, as mine is kind of mickey moused right now. if i were to lift it more, i would get 1" lift rear shackles, and 5" front coil springs. right now i have pro comp es 9000 shocks for 4" of lift. i would be lifting so i could fit 33x10.50 tires without rubbing or trimming. is there anythiong else i need to get for 5" of lift? or am i good?

 

you could just use a coil spacer... cheap to purchase, INSANELY CHEAP to make (mine cost $9 total)

how about your front end parts? do you have an adjustable track bar? your probably going to want longer upper and lower control arms

 

if you are willing to stay at 4.5" you will not end upper control arms... but you will need lowers

 

I spaced my 3.5" lift to 5.25" and didn't change anything else. (already had long enough brake lines) It did move the axle off-center and mess with the alignment, so an adjustable track bar would be nice. It also rides quite a bit rougher since I went higher on the short arms. At 5.25, I had to do some significant fender cutting on the front to make them clear. A narrower tire with less backspacing would help, but I think you'd still have to chop some.
