Actually I will be about 15" of lift in the front and 13" in the rear. Since I am using rear springs in the front it adds an extra 2" in lift. I built a 4" drop spring hanger for the front and relocated the shackle mounts to the bottom of the frame giving me my 15". As for the rear, 63" rear 6" + 2" because I'm going with a shackle flip with gives me another 4" plus a 7" shackle giving me another inch or two. Total 13-14" lift. We might play with the location of the spring hanger if need be. I am hoping for minimal trimming of the fenders. I am going with bed sides only so I am willing to trim those a lot more the. The fenders.
