Lorenz leveling kit w/ 22.5 Alcoa's

[AWestbrook]

Here are a few pics after the Lorenz leveling kit w/6% springs and Alcoa's from 4 Wheel Customz in Dallas. The kit really outperformed my expectations and the tires were put on w/o balancing and driven for 400 miles @ 75 mph!!! They are G164 Goodyear's and have no road noise. View attachment 62718

Very nice looking truck. How does it do with the 5th wheel on there? Did you do anything to the rear springs?

You are exactly right. They are Goodyear G164's 255/70/22. 5. You will have to trim the inner black fender a little but that is it.

I didn't measure it with a tape but it is not the full 2 1/2 that the spacers say they do. Since this is a complete replacement of the springs and shocks it will depend on what you have as a front bumper and accessories. I will take some pics today on level ground to show you how it looks but it is perfect. REally helped with the rear jacked up.





Answer to Spooledup: I have not towed the fifth wheel yet but not expecting any problems. The only thing I have done on the rear is change the shocks out to Bilstiens. Nothing on the springs.

EDavid,



Here is the pic of it on level ground. You can see it does not raise it too much in the front. View attachment 62728

Great looking Truck!

What pressure are you running the tires at?

Do you find the ride harsh?

I love your truck and the mods, but think the tails would look more appropriate on one of those import cars.

I am still experimenting with the psi. Right now 50 front and 35 rear. Going tomorrow to have them spin balanced on the truck. The ride is harder than stock but not bad. It's worth it!!!

My girlfriend told me the same thing but I had already clear lensed every thing else so changed the tail lights also. Thinking about changing them.
