How To Lift Your Truck

Many trucks come with excellent performance features that make them ideal for work around Nashville and Hendersonville and going on trips, but if you’re going off-roading in Madison, investing in a lift kit will benefit you and your truck.

How Should You Lift Your Truck?

There are multiple ways to lift your truck with a lift kit, read about them below:

• Shackle Lifts: Replace leaf-spring shackles to restore broken suspension with this lift kit. Spindle Lifts: A Spindle Lift will raise your truck two to three inches and can be paired with another lift kit.
• Suspension Lift Kits: Suspension Lift Kits enhance your truck’s off-road ability. Block and coil spacers, along with shock absorbers, spindles, and mounting brackets, will give your truck a height advantage.
• Body Lift Kits: The Body Lift Kit will increase your truck’s height without affecting its suspension or driveability.
• Short/Long Arm Suspension Lift Kits: Short Arm Lift Kits are the most common lift kits due to their price and their ease of installation. With bigger coils and shocks, they can handle a rough off-road trip, however, they compromise the driveability of the vehicle. Long Arm Lift Kits are more difficult to install but provide a smoother ride without losing their off-road capabilities.

Why You Should Lift Your Truck

Installing a lift kit on your own or with a trusted mechanic gives you additional personalization options that you might otherwise miss if you order straight from the manufacturer. By installing a lift kit you will receive a height advantage for navigating over rocks or off-road, increased driveability on Nashville streets, and a smoother suspension.

Where You Can Find Lifted Trucks

Most lifted trucks can be found at specialty dealerships or through private sales. Many truck owners, however, purchase their own vehicle and lift kit so they have exactly the type of kit they want with the truck they need for working and off-roading around Hendersonville.
