Lift questions
I am planning on a 6" leaf spring lift on my sig truck this year and I have some questions.
After installation, do I need to lengthen my driveshafts? I've heard yes and no on this
Will my stock brake lines be long enough or do I need to extend them?
Will the ujoints bind because of the increased angle?
Should I get longer shackles to make the axles tilt thus decreasing the driveshaft angle?
Is it really necessary to get 4:56 gears in the axles if I already have 4:10s?

With a 6" lift you'll probably be running 35s? Or 33s? Either way 4.56 is about right. With 33s that gives you a bit more getup over stock and its about the same with stock for 35s. 4.10s will barely cut it for 33s and for 35s you won't like it very much I don't think. And anything with 6" lift and 35s will use a lot more gas I'd think lol.
