Hi everyone,
I am currently running 265x70x16 (roughly 30.5 inch) tires on my 96 Explorer 4x4. The tire size looks good, but the truck is begging to be lifted. Perhaps 2-3 inch lift will be perfect.
After reading here, I have decided to go with PA-853 body lift kit. My question is do I need to also change the shackles? My leaf springs are about 2 years old, so no sagging yet.
It seems most folks have both PA-853 and shackles/add.leaf etc. Not sure if the rear still needs to be raised to level it off.
Thanks!
Alex
