lifted third gen question

[dcarr]

since i lifted my 07(three inch spacer), my upper control arm is just about touching the spring and if i hit a bump right it makes a light clunking sound. i think its the arm and spring touching. does anyone else have this happen?

Hey I got your pm. Funny you mention this bc Ive been noticing that when my wife pulls in our driveway I hear somewhat of a clunk. My driveway has a dip in it between it and the road. I might have to look into it.

 

[dcarr]

ya it doesnt take a big bump, just the right angle hit. and nothing on some bigger hits. just making sure i didnt mess something up.

 

[SOLISIMO]

Yup. For me its when shes making a left into the driveway. I think I hear it in the front driver side. But going over speed humps its good.

 

[dcarr]

was almost wondering if we would need to get diff upper arms.

 

[SOLISIMO]

I have no clue, I just wish someone made a lift like a pro comp 6"

 

[dcarr]

but more like half the price of the rize lol. almost was going to throw a pair of raptor struts up front and leave the rear with the spacer but cant find any cheap enough

 

[SOLISIMO]

From what I read the front end of the truck is the same as the f150 but come to find out that is not the case. Dont know who to believe.

 

[dcarr]

ya thats why i cant see buying them on a may or may not work. but then may have same issue with control arms. and being the abuse they are made to take may need to change everything from the frame out so a real lift may just be cheaper in the long run.

Mine is lifted like yours and I havent had any proplems or clunking noises from my Expedition and mine has even been wrecked after the lift was installed, What brand is your lift?
