I can't recommend anything but can tell you that you will be asked for all vehicle info.

Bingo. Plus so many times when I assumed one year was the same as the next or even 2-3 years difference, there were differences in the rigs that made a difference in what was going to be recommended. I truly wish that vehicle specific info was a recommendation made for all new members to add to their signatures. Oh well. Thanks Wade for the explanation.

OK, No one can read your mind only your post... lol Photos of what you have are very helpful too.

What 4 inch lift kit do you have now?
What struts / coil over do you have?
Tire size / wheel offset do you have now? And will that change?
Where is the rear end lift wise.

What are you wanting to accomplish when finished?
How will you be driving it? mild, light, heavy or even no off road?
If heavy off road do you have a 2 speed transfer?


I have a 4 inch Rancho lift with 35s and it gets very extreme use even some rock crawling.

Its just a commuter..work and back...bilsteins with a top plate spacer..just want to see if anyone sells a diff spacer before i machine my own. Pretty simple...but i think the question is self explanatory..i also pull my toys with this occasionally...this being one of them

the bds 4" kit uses a drop...they usually offer part numbers for individual pieces also.

#02176
#02177

these appear to be the #'s for the front and rear cross members. look at their instruction sheets.
