I do have 2" AC coils up front. I have an ARB front bumper with a winch that weighs down the front end just about an inch. So in order to level the truck out a little I had to use the NX4 spacers. Rick, I ended up using longer bolts and installing them on top of the SFD spacers for the struts. This way I didn't have to disassemble the strut to add the spacer. So, actually it is like having a regular 6" lift because the front end is lower by about an inch due to the bumper and winch. 2" AC coils with 4" SFD up front 6.5" Jeep coils cut just like Ricks in the rear with adapter from Krypton Fabs I'll take a pic of the strut spacer up front to show you guys later.

Sorry for taking so long to get that pic to you Rick. I didn't think it would fit either but I have a friend who works at the tire shop where I bought them and he let me do a test fit. Love the way they look and drive. I actually followed your build and went with the same rear springs you did. The only thing I did different was added the NX4 spacers up front because I have the ARB bumper and winch that weighed the front down some.

Thanks man! I went with BF Goodrich KM2 305/70/16 and they fit great. I have about a quarter of an inch of space between the tire and the strut. I also went with Pro Comp Rock Crawlers 16x8 with 3.75" bs. I feel like I need to extend the rear links to bring the rear wheels back to center them in the wheel wells. Anyone know if someone makes adjustable links? I also want to re-install my rear sway bar but it doesn't fit. Does anyone make longer arms or quick disconnect links for the rear sway bar?

Like two months but I was only working on it an hour or two at a time. Work and school are what made it take so long.

Max tire size VS Lift Kit Used VS Custom or OE Wheels

Is it possible to go with 4" back spacing with a 305/70x16 or do I need 3.75 back spacing to clear the strut? The wheels I want only come in 4" bs. I have 2" AC coils with 4" SFD. Thanks in advance. -
Thank you!! That's exactly what I was looking for. I knew I saw your install before. Stay tuned for another SFD install...
-
I'm going to start my SFD install tomorrow but I can't see any of the pics from most of the posts. Anyone know why? I can't see shift220's pictures at all and thats what I was planning on following. Kevin

I have BFG A/T on my 01 and have 66,000 miles on them and they still have a decent amount of tread left. I just bought a set of them for my wife's Xterra. I have had nothing but good things to say about them especially in the snow.

Well, I have the SFD (still not installed, will get to it in the very near future) and the 1" Nx4 spacers. I will be installing both because I have the ARB bumper with a winch that puts enough weight on the front end that it has dropped 1". So when I have it all on, it will still have the 4" SFD and will be level front to back. All together it will have 2" 4x4parts suspension with the 4" SFD=6" lift. Can't wait!!! So, if you plan on a bumper and winch, keep the spacers with the SFD. Hope this helps.

The front right wheel sounded like something broke. I was camping in Colorado offroad when it happened and I didn't think I was going to get down the mountain. If I grabbed the wheel on the top and pulled it towards me it would move in and out (this is if I'm facing the side of the tire) with a clunking sound.

Dude, I went through the same thing about 4 months after I installed my 2" lift. (Haven't installed the SFD yet) When I would drive I thought my friggin wheel was going to fall off. I replace the balljoint, then checked the wheel bearings and still couldn't figure it out. I kept over looking the suspension cause it was brand new. Turns out I blew a strut. If you have the dust covers on the strut, pull it up while someone else stands inside the door while holding onto the roof rack. Have them rock the truck from side to side while you look at the strut. I was pissed when I found this out because I had already replace the balljoint that had nothing wrong with it. Problem was I screwed it up removing it so I had to install the new balljoint. Oh well. Live and learn.
