RCD lift pictures!!!

[kaukris1]

hi there!
I was hoping that all the people with the RCD lift kit could post their pictures of their truck with the RCD kit, and post what exactly they are running? Just pictures of your truck and if it has a body lift. Tire size, width, backspacing, AALs, shocks, etc. are a plus! I was going to put the RCD on my truck, and now I am thinking of maybe putting on a body lift, and maybe bigger, wider tires/wheels. Your pictures would really help me in my decision.

Whatever you do, PLEASE don't do a body lift. What RCD lift are you looking at?

So whats wrong with a body lift?

[Imdone]

Let's not pull that body lift bandaid off again... The is such a wast of time.

No tundra has fallen apart from having a bodylift installed that has been noted on this board.

To get check the RCD lift thread for photos. There are several members in there that have pics in their albums.

I have checked the RCD threads for photos of the RCD lift on the DC,, and I was getting tired of clicking on albums with no photos.
I just saw a 06 DC lifted with the 6 inch RCD and 3 inch body lift on some Mickey Thompson 18 inch rims, and a 33x15.5x18 tire. It looked really nice, especially with the tires sticking out a little. I was wondering if this setup was OK on a 05 DC 2WD? I was really thinking of going this route, but maybe some narrower tires? The owner of this truck didn't have the traction bars on and he didn't change his UCA's on the front. Is this a must?
Mahalo for everyones input!

6" rcd and 3" body and 33" tires? those would look tiny 33's look small on RCD alone imho

oh and

[kaukris1]

sic402...
how big are your tires?
do you have the BL?
i assume you have 35's, but how wide?



what kind of damage could be done to the truck if i run wide tires....like 15.5's?

[Imdone]

15.5" wide tires like "Pitbull" tires can wreak havoc on the steering rack and tie-rod ends. One of the NV guys is running 13.50" wide tires and last I heard he was okay, but a 15.5" wide is a much larger contact patch.

Check my gallery for my previous RCD lifted truck.
Check out Herbicidals photos, Mustang67408 he has RCD w/3" body lift on 35" tires. Herb's has 35s on just the RCD lift.
I was running 35s with the RCD lift, SAW custom coils, Alcan custom rear springs. Truck height was about 7" in the front and 5.5" in the rear.

I'll chime in and LOL:crazy: about the BL comment! Anyhow, here's my 06' Tundra RCD 6", 3" BL sitting on 35's Procomp Xterrains. No problems whatsover for the last 2 years.

nice truck lsturbointeg!


to all of you who have the RCD and erased their photos from their albums.... this is for you to post those pics! this would helpme in making my decision on what tire/wheel size to go with.

Right now I am planning on the RCD with traction bars, 18x10 or 18x12 rims, 33x13.5 tires.

Thanks!

33" tires are too small, it looks funny.

Here's a couple of mine doing what it does best! I love the RCD lift. It's been on my truck for about 3 1/2 years, I've never had to retighten even a single bolt. There are a few more pics in my gallery.

Spec's are in my signature below.

Love the look of your truck Herb! Deer Valley trail looks sweet. I go up to Penny Pines every year for a few days to ride the 450. All your guys trucks look good.
