    Howzit!

    It's not necessary unless your application requires it... (ie: yours are worn out, etc...).

    I've had mine lifted for 2 yrs now and have no need to go away from stock. If you do, consider the Rancho 9000XL 9-way adjustable shocks.
    Had them on my previous VX. Awesome upgrade.
    (sorry, I know you were asking LittleBeast... just thought I'd throw in my $.02)

    Just a thought (truck and VX Noob... Lots of questions):

    Does this upgrade make the ride stiffer? Im curious as to which upgrade does what on the suspension.

    I am in a bubble of looking to build the vx on a street setup. A sports car firm tight ride. Maybe the wrong vehicle.....

    Haha, well, the VX suspension is already pretty stiff, but I guess this mod may have made it a tad more firm, hard to tell though.

    I had the stock shocks rebuilt and am still running rebuilt stock shocks.

    ***Bump!!!***

    Hey Beast... I can't take it anymore. Your rims and tires are soooo much nicer than my 18's with Terra Grapplers. Me-thinks it's time for me to do a winter-project Suspension lift and tire upgrade. Quick question: what offset did you go with on your Zinik Z26 20x8.5s? After a quick ebay search, a 15 offset was all I could find.
    Thanks in advance, Ben.
    ps. Man your truck looks nice.

    I posted the offset somewhere on here in the wheel options thread, but I don't remember exactly what it is. I think it is 18. I will try and find that and post it here soon.
