Lift kit size for 52" spring swap

[firemedicsafd]

How can i find out exactly what size lift i have so i can get the right size springs for the 52" front spring swap. I bought a 6" kit installed from a local shop. I got all springs in the front and a shackle flip in the back. It rides level and the fronts measure out at 47". The backs are @ 52". What lift 52" would i need to switch out for the fronts? Ill add pics asap. Thank you!

most 52" leafs give 4"-5" lift depending on the condition if used and or how many leafs .

you do know longer shocks and upper mounts are the norm .
no stock sway bar will fit .
push/pull steering will be about worthless off road .
lots of guys say the swap for a on road driven rig is real soft up front .

whats your end goal ?

If you wanted 6” lift I would use 2” 52’s up front and maybe remove a leaf. Keep in mind that you will want to move your shackle hanger/mounts forward a couple inches so you have a good shackle angle, which will also reduce the amount of lift you get, but will improve ride quality and droop. Probably use 6” shackles.

Are you going to use b52 setup or other similar setup?

my plans are to wheel this thing very much and keep it drivable on the road. I already have the ABomb front bumper from DIY4X and plan on the rear hanger kit from them also. i already have crossover steering and 2wd box. and it is riding on 1 tons front and rear. What company makes a 2" lift 52" spring?

I run pro comps which are 2” lift 52’s with offset pins. I have them pushed all the way forward in the A-Bomb

13311 and I removed the overloads

I ran tuff country 2” lift 52’s and they were very soft, especially with the overload removed
