If you are talking about the leveling kit though DONT buy the "leveling kit" /torsion keys. You can easily get under the truck and cranked the bars up to give you another two on the front. But I dont feel that this is what you are talking about.
Lifting changes the aerodynamics, which can affect mileage, but it mainly comes when you throw them big tires under it with stock gearing. But I believe with regearing you can get back close to the mileage...heck I get less than some people that have 35's and have regeared.  |
That makes sense with the aerodynamics, but idk if 2-3 inches are gonna do that much that ways, and yeah the tires makes sense, my dad has 35" tires on his F-350 V10, and it gets 10-11 on a good day...
Thanks for the advice on the torsion keys, i was looking at those and wondering why the ones i have couldn't do the same thing... So to do that I would just need the special tool for the torsion bars, and then crank them up.
If I am replacing the rear shocks, should I get different ones to add some lift? or is it even capable of that? thanks again for the responses.
