i have a 93 2wd ext cab i am taking my truck in to have the 2in Roungh Country lift taken out my front end was making so many noises it was unreal the shop i took it to said it is almost was like thoses are different coil springs beacuse they are so stiff he said the shocks have never moved it put everything out of line the shocks are rubbing against the coil springs and it is messing with my rack and pinion and there are round stops rubing against the coil springs not to mention it wore my tires like a bitch i had the lift in for probably about 8 months but it started making all the noises about a month ago has anyone else dicovered this with the rough country suspension lift

i am not claiming to know everything about a 93' dakota, but it sounds like the lift wasnt totally at fault. The springs rubbing the shocks sounds like they were not installed right. if the pig tails of the springs are not seated correctly they can sit crooked and rub the shocks. As far as the tires wearing, with only a 2inch lift, i would think the alignment was not done correctly. just my thoughts.
