7.5 inch lift

Postby sammyau [OP] » Dec 02 2011, 5:59am

I'm looking to order the tough country 7.5 inch lift and i notice it saids AWD models will require drive line modifications
(Must be converted to not be AWD). does it mean I won't be able to use my 4x4 after the kit is installed?

No, you'll still retain all your functions

Gm made an AWD series truck in the early 2000's, the quattro I believe

If your truck is the usual factory pickup then you should be fine

Is your truck AWD? If it is it needs to be converted to a 4wd so it can be driven in 2wd.
