Ok just finished suspension lift, or at least thought I did. Passenger side sounds like the axle is rubbing/hitting or something. 4x4 does engage and axle turns. The CV knuckle did slip out during the lift work, and did not easily go back into place. Also the CV appears to be a repair from before I bought it. Inspecting it I notice the ball joint grease zerk looks like it's hitting the axle.(replacing with moog soon. Front is OME 2927, with Bilsteins 24 139168, and JBA UCAs. I also added 2-2" conduit nuts as clevis spacers.
1- I don't think this lift takes me too high to need a differential drop or longer CV axles, Right??
2- if so, is the Clevis lift enough to go over the 3.5" I desired?
3- it shows a gain of 6" but the camber is way off and the 31-10.50- 15s were on when I took the after measurements, instead of the originals that were on with the before. Was expecting to gain 3-3.5" not sure if the camber and tires are supplying those additional 2.5".
Any additional help/ tips would be appreciated
Also- I am replacing the Axle with a Napa Reman. And hope it helps.
