Blacknight,

Well  lift kit I'm once agin looking into  :(  as after a put the bd lift  on got some numbers off a friends stock xl-7 and I'm only sitting 4" hight ( 2" bd + 4" of tire/2 = 4"  So something not right
But I've been tied up at work so I have realy had a chance to look in to it.

Rember stock tires are 27" and if u put a 31" tires its only gonna raise ur truck 2"

over all hieght of the tire is 30" ur center is 15" on a 26" tire over all center is 13"

So 2" body lift and the 4" bigger tires should be only 4" over stock

Right, but he's got a 2,5" Calmini suspension lift, so it should be 2+4/2+2.5=6.5" lift. So if blacknight is only getting 4" there is a problem with the suspension lift right? ;)

Blacknight, I didn't realize you were running that much lift at Gonzookin. You should have looked taller than my silver Tracker! There's something up with that suspension lift...

Good it's not just me.  I think that I'm just going to get some spring spacers and fix it that way.

I just used nomaad's write up it wasn't too bad.  The only thing that I realy had issues with was the steering and getting it off the zuk.

Ok so it looks like a spacer lift and the body lift and you can run a 245/75-16 tire? Seeing as the Calmini lift doesn't offer much more than a spacer lift.
