Ordered my lift today

[uctke283]

When you get the BDS springs I need some measurements from them if you could. I have an experiment coming up.

front springs are: 3 1/4 inside 4 1/2 outside

Rear 4 3/8 inside 5 1/2 outside

Everything I need for my lift is either here or will be here by Wednesday of next week. I am planning on doing the install on Saturday or Sunday the 27th or 28th, and getting tires mounted and alignment on Monday, the 29th. Run Down is this:

BDS Suspension Kit - Front and Rear Springs, Rear Shocks
Billstein - Front Shocks
Terraflex - Front extended bump Stops
Top Plate spacer
Rocky Road - A Arms
2 extra rear Iso's
Rear Extended bump stops
Treadwright Guard Dog 245/75/16 tires

I'd think about pushing the the tire and alignment work out a good week. The suspension needs to settle for a while. If you get an alignment right away, in a week or two it'll be out again.

Since you're getting new tires, I wouldn't worry about shredding the old ones with a bad alignment for a week or two.

My concern when I lift is that I have good tires that I won't be replacing anytime soon...need to let the suspension settle, but don't want to chew up my tires with a bad alignment few weeks.

Good idea....

Ok, so the last of the parts I needed arrived today - the teraflex extended bump stops. I attached the ball joints to the RR Insane A arms that I got the other day.
The front shocks/sprigs are all assembled too, so hopefully that will save some time during the install.

Saturday is install day!

uctke283 - where did you get the terraflex bump stops? Just curious if they can be found for <$40 a pair.

JBA had them - they were 40 bucks for the pair....

Cool, to save shipping I'll probably just order the terraflex front and OME's from JBA when I am ready.

Lift is done!

I ordered the BDS 2 inch lift - I also ordered Rancho 5764 Shocks for the Front but are back ordered until 3/1. I tried several places to get them and all of them are backordered.....

I also ordered teraflex extended bump stops for the front
Gotta love tax refunds....

Nice, can you take a pic from a different angle? I know those are 75 tires, but they look close to the flare?

The Liberty's look really good lifted. Nice job!
The one thing I've noticed is that all the Liberty's sit a little different whether or not stock or lifted.
Those Treadrights are the same size as my Grabber AT2's but they look taller on your truck.
SWEET!
