Going from 6 to 8 inch lift.

[T.R.P.]

Is it possible to go from a 6 inch suspension lift to an 8 inch without buying a whole new kit? What would I have to do? I have now decided to keep my lift and go bigger.

i think you could just put some leveling spacers

Where at?


And if a rim is not "hub centric", can I still put them on my truck which has manual locking hubs?

Lot more info on your lift, what truck etc. would help...

Yes your rims should fit whether they are hub centric or not

Just looked, the brake lines are fine, I don't have coils on the rear, so can I just get a 6 inch solid block?

As for the front, how can I do that? Can you puta block under the coils in the front or just buy a longer coil?

Longer front coils..Icon 7" with a TEI spacer, I'd get new Icon 5"rear lift leaf springs not a 6" block

New springs front and rear. The rest should be good to go. May need new pitman arm and track bar though.

just add a 2" spacer to the coils. I actually have some from a leveling kit I used on my 6" to get to an 8". They actually replace the rubber isolators at the top of the coils. The stock ones are like 1" thick, these are 3-3.5" thick. here is a pic when I ran them on my coils with a Rough Country 6" 4-link on 6" coils. In the rear I stacked a 5" block with my stock block.


I am now running a Rize 8" 4-link with King Coilovers, so the spacers are available. I have one guy that was interested I will double check with him to make sure he didn't want em if you are interested. I also have the rear blocks as I now am running full 8" rear springs.
