10inch lift questions nbs

[Blk06silv]

I bought a 10 inch whiplash lift off a friend of mine since he choose to get an Fts 12 Will I need to get a longer drive shaft or brake lines I will be changing gears and doing some cognito steering and front suspension parts

Longer brake lines for sure. Driveshaft I'm not sure of.

I figured I would need new brake lines just hoping I won't need a longer drive shaft at this point but I plan on getting a bigger aluminum drive shaft in the future

What kind of truck is it? I know the crew cab 1/2 tons need a longer rear shaft or fts driveline spacers. and the front should reach I think, but it puts it on a pretty steep angle.

It's an 06 silverado with a crew cab bed

Then yes you will need a longer rear driveshaft or the fts driveshaft spacer. Otherwise the 10" pulls out too far from the tcase

Damn wasn't looking forward that answer haha any idea on how much the spacer cost

I couldn't tell you, but give fts a call and then can tell you for sure what you need and how much.

You think running a 4 inch rear block on factory leafs would work for The time being just to get it up and rolling

People do it everyday

Hell a 6" tapered block would work as well.

so yes i will need new front and rear driveshafts is the a way i can remove the front driveshaft and run it as a 2wd with out messing anything up

Yes you can absolutely remove the front driveshaft people do it all the time. But then it leaves the tcase open to getting crap in it
