:welcome:to:tmc:.:cheers:

I don't know anything about this particular brand of lift either, but whatever shop is going to do the install should have some pics of other installs. Look for the CV angles it leaves you with afterwards.(The pics I saw on the Zone products website didn't show that)

Also while considering this mod look at possibly changing out your pitman arm, idler arm bracket and idler arm to MOOG. I would switch upper and lower ball joints and upper lower control arm bushings along with inner and outer tie rod ends to Moog also.

With a lift and bigger tires it's not a question of "if" but "when" these parts will have extra stress and need replaced. The labor is cheaper now to have it done then seperately later.(i.e. they have to either drop my lift or pull the steering box to get to my pitman arm 'cause the lift is in the way of dropping the arm down to install new) Most all 4x4 shops offer front end alignment, but make sure the one you choose DEFINETLY does.

Depending on new tire size you will need to rebuild your tranny(at some point) and re gear the front and rear differentials also.

No prob :cheers:

I'm running 37's and my rear end is regeared to 4:56.(front hasn't been done yet) Some say 4:88 is a better re gear for that size of tire.

Mine was done by the p.o. so I had no choice. When doing 70mph my tach is at 2,000-2,200 rpms.:thumbs:

Welcome to TMC. Zone is a pretty good lift from what I've read. For the price you could probably get a more well known brand for the same $. Superlift is only $200 more
