i am lifting for both the look and function! i'm not very hard on my truck being i have to pay for it + damages if i mess it up, so i pretty much baby the truck unless i have to cross that creek or rock! My top 3 as of right now is, Superlift, RCD, then Fabtech! I need the best bang for the buck as the article said listed by chuckie. I need to keep the kit under $2k.

jk, that sucs you had to wait on the christmas present! It looks like it was well worth the wait! Also, how much should i expect for someone to install my lift?

i cant remember wat i paid but if u have access to a lift its pretty easy i was just in college at the time........
i have crawled on cars...been in a wreck and ran over a lexus.....bogged it.....climbed it......jumped it lol and never had any problems just a broke cv and a tie rod but that was my fault lol

jk, i see you got red shock boots, did u order them seperate? I don't want yellow! Chuckie, do you have the 6-8" kit? I think i have eliminated fabtech and RCD, im now tossed between Superlift and CST. More toward superlift due to price.

i went to vc tech in hoover alabama...........i went for automotive collision refinishing and custom upholstery


o and why u have the truck apart put new ball joints in the stockers dont like big tires
i put cognito upper control arms on mine and cam lock out plates on my truck cause it never wanted to stay aligned........not the lift kits fault.....it was just the tires were so wide.........the wider the tire the lower the front will sit to....so dont align the truck with stock wheels then put your big ones on cause u will get some negative camber

inmywhitez

yea my tires won't be wide, only 12.50's and my wheels are only 9" wide. Thanks for the advice! I will check into new ball joints too! I can't believe that superlift 7.5" kit comes with dual shock brackets and 6 shocks. You know Fabtechs dual shock kit is around $500+?
