Anyone with a 8" lift Rize Industry lift for 2004 Expo?

[SOLISIMO]

how was the rear of your expedition? I have a 2008 and me and my dad installed a 2" Rancho leveling kit ourselves and the back was a total B**CH to take apart and install, congradulations so far and good luck, HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY?

Its not the same, not even close.





mindgame what size tires you gonna go with?

Right now I'm running 33s. Just bought the damn things last year when I installed the 3" spacers... Thinking of maybe, keeping this as they look good for city, and when I plan on doing some offroading... Purchase 37 on cheap rims...

 

[SOLISIMO]

lol that thing in 33's is gonna look duhduhduh Yeah you need 37s bro!

 

[panda24619]

can you fit 37s? why not do what everyone else does in hawaii. 35x12.5 on 17x15 rims. stretch those tires. o and they have to be boggers. hahaha

o wait its not a yota on a 12" lift. haha

 

[mindgame]

Guys, guys, Guyzz!!!

Yeah I know 33s will look, a tad bit shameful... **sigh**

35s or 37s are on the next to do list, after this project~~~
(not to mention an additional step for the wife and kids, so they can get onto the running board...)

remember those days... but I only got tube steps... wife still has to climb in.... kinda funny

Did you buy the custom front axle with it? I'm still loving mine only problem was the bracket holding the diff up cracked along the weld... I'm trying to work something out with RIZE but may just weld it back and put a few extra gussets myself... Oh and go with the 37s mine has 35s and I'm dying to get 37s lol

Yup!! from shipped from 4xshaft.com

I would just weld it myself also... I'm still waiting for my brake lines that was not shipped... I am finally nearing completion on the front end..

I probably would love for 37s, but the wifey is already gawking at how high it is now ... *sigh*

 

[mindgame]

Sorry guys... No pics today... got home late, and was only able to reinstall the front differentials..

I'll post some updated pics of where I'm at tomorrow... (Unless you wanna see crappy night pics)

 

[mindgame]

Alrighty... Here are the crappy night shots with iPhone...

I am lookin for pictures of the individual brackets not bolted together before you install them in the rear. Mabee like a picture of each price by itself. Or laid out individually side by side

Thanks for are time and help. Looking great so far!

Will do.. After I'm done with the fronts and preping for the rear...

 

[Duner]

Thanks alot man!
Do you have the installation instructions with pictures you can send or post? I know they offer some in PDF format on their website but nothing on the rear

Thanks again

 

[mindgame]

Getting close to completing the front end!!!!!
(Missing inventory to date - Brake lines, and Dust boot flange rings.. All minor and not a show stopper yet..)

 

[mindgame]

Yay!!!!

Front end completed

Now for the rear!
