Thanks! But dang yours is on an entire different level!! :drool:

These actually are rear link arms. On a 500+ series there is no leaf springs. You can have either coil overs or air bags. But One Up does offer setups for rear link arms & leaf springs and pretty much a stock set up rear with traction bars. I am sure you have seen those before :D


No a true 575 series has the coilovers mount in the rear control arms. Mine don't they mount to the axle. Mine do have the upgraded rear link arms. Typically the rear arms look like this...

This is a true 575 series. Take a look at the rear link arms. This truck is the same as the video above. It is a 10" with 38's and drives freaking crazy. Check out the bumpstops on the rear.

every time it would rain. You had to spend 1 hour on each shock and polish it!! Those days are soon to be over!!! Satin color chrome here i come!!!! The spring will still be blue on the coil-overs.

Id take a wild guess and say its a couple inches lower than laysons? Being they have the same 10" lift, just different series set at different ride hights?

Bumper height

I talked to Dave and when they are finished with the satin chrome. He said he could lower my stuff even more. He said you can cut the Bump stops so i can run even more sag. I will be around the same as the silver 575 One Up truck with a frame height of 38" but my Road Armor bumpers will be close to 31" back and 30" front with that Road Armor plate running down lower in the center.
So i will be closer to PA 30" bumper max on a 9,000 to 11,000 GVW.
Thats with 40" Toyo tires as well. But thats as low as i can go. It will not be good for off-road. It would bottom out big time!! Just for the road. If i wanted to go off-roading i would have to jack her back up again!
Hope that helps!

Yo my brother in-Law lives on Oahu. I go there every year to see him and his family.
I love Hawaii !!! It is so cool. He lives on the east side behind sandy's beach. He knows so many cool spots on the North Shore that are low key not to many people out at the brake.
I hit Pipe some times. But only if it is around 4 to 8. Any bigger no way man!!! That place will ##### you up!!! I broke my nose and 2 ribs there 4 years ago. Never had a wave dump harder then there!! You ever on Oahu????

What would a set-up like this cost in a 6-8 inch version? This is really want I want to do with my truck, but I don't think I will be able to afford it.

I don't think you could go that low. That ends up limiting your articulation and pretty much defeating the purpose of the lift kit.

As far as money goes they are spendy and it all really depends on what size of coilovers you want and if you want the additional shocks. Normally you would just get coilovers and that is it. No extra shocks at all. There are a couple different options in coilover sizes.... You could probably be as cheap as 8ish with just doing the front end (I am not sure on this and you should call Truck Toyz or One Up Offroad). Or go crazy and be as high as maybe 30ish if you want everything. The shocks (not the coilovers) can be as much as 3,500 bucks EACH (I stayed away from those... Hhaha)... LOL. There are so many different options that it can vary GREATLY. These kits are definitely not for everyone.

Your best bet is just go to One Up Offroads website or Truck Toyz website and call them up and talk to them. Marty is at Truck Toyz and Dave is at One Up Offroad. That will give you the best idea for costs and different options.

Call Dave or Marty they will hook you up and give you what you need. My One Up lift kit is crazy and it rides better then stock. Zero!!!!! bump steer!!! They are super easy to work with and get there stuff done fast. They picked my truck up and dropped her off finished with a kick ass lift kit.
