Question for lifted owners..............

[stockcarracer]

I made 2.5 inch spacers for my 05 Ex. I am now noticing a bearing feeling in the rear. I also noticed a weird feeling in the Ex. If I drive a steady 40 or so MPH and pat the gas and let off it feels like the rear suspension squats. I never noticed this before the lift. I have the bearing feeling up to 40 and then it feels like the bearings get out of there bind and it rides smoother with out the bearing noise or feeling. I am thinking that the CV axles are binding and at higher speeds it works its self out. Does any of this make sense or am I just paranoid? Also my 2.5 inch spacer gave me 4.25 inches of total lift. Is this the norm for yall???

2.25" spacers gave me 3.5" if lift. At the same geometry, 2.5" should equate to ~4" so you're right on track.

I've haven't notice any bad bearing sensations. I've had 4 bearings replaced in this girl so I'm pretty sure I'd recognise the sound, but I've never "felt" anything. And I have no "squat" sensations either. I'm amazed at how little this truck's suspension compressed during 90% of all driving. Good luck-
