mega cab 7.5" lift with better than stock ride
thought i'd share, this is one of the best lift setups i have ever installed!!!
here is what i started with... my 07 MC with leveling kit and 33 x 12.50's
ordered parts from top gun customz.... 4" coil spacer, 3.5" progressive rate coils, pro comp long arm upgrade kit, 3.5" rear lift blocks & u-bolts, sway bar link kit....
installation was done by me and only me, probably about 12 hrs total, in my driveway and that is with fabbing my own shock an sway bar brackets and track bar location
this is how high i had to get it to get the springs and spacers in....
with the help of the rear shock extentions, and modified front shock towers, i was able to use the stock skocks, at their stock ride location, i also kept the stock pitman arm and upper track bar mount, with relocating the lower track bar mount, combined with the progressive rate coils and the long arm kit, this thing steers as good as it did new, and rides even better
all done sittin on 37 x 13.50 x 18 toyo m/t's and 18 x 10 moto metals, but still needs a bath
