Surfing For To Lift Up?
Sandy asks…How does a 6"suspension lift affect gas mileage and transmission wear?I'm thinkin' about putting a 6"suspension lift on my 2000 Silverado Z71 but I'd feel better knowing if that will affect gas mileage and also will it wear my transmission out faster trying to turn bigger tires. I plan on puttin 35's on it if I go with the lift.Nancy answers:I WOULD SAY THE U-JOINTS WILL SUFFER THE MOST DUE TO THE ANGLE OFOUTPUT SHAFT PINION WILL CHANGE WITH A 6" LIFT U-JOINTS CAN HAND ABOUT 1-3
