    I've been looking at the mcghauys for awhile now. Loving the wire/tire setup. Can ya let us know what that combo is and whether or not there was light or heavy trimming required

    @Turbo-wj9qc 5 років тому +1

    Leveling kit question for you, 15 Silverado 2500hd, I keep reading that you need shocks or extenders with a 2" level. If that were true then the shock would have to Max out before hitting the bump stop which I don't believe. Cranking keys 1.5-2" doesn't allow the suspension to droop any farther than stock, tell me how I'm wrong.

    Can you make a video explaining why some kits require you to cut the tie rod ends.

    • @DannyDonnatelli
      @DannyDonnatelli 5 років тому +2

      It's to cut costs down for their lift kit. I have the rough country lift and I have to cut mine everytime I replace tie rods. Not a huge deal but it's kinda of annoying after a while. This McGaughys kit gives you replacement tie rods so you dont have to cut. The reason why is you are changing the angles of your front end so when you lift it up the tie rods have to be shorter so they can align your vehicle properly. Hope this helped, I was in your position 6 months ago lol

    • @kevin86670
      @kevin86670 5 років тому +1

      Zack Daniels it’s also kinda better that we have to cut ours because imagine having to wait however long for a new set to be mailed while your truck is down when you could just go to the auto parts store buy some then cut them

    Question. Whats your recommendation on installing a 4.5" zone lift onto a truck that has 2.5" level in front and a 1-2" drop shackles in the rear? And would you be needing wheel spacers after the 4.5" is installed?
