Which Lift?

I am going to be doing a 6" lift soon with a 3" body lift. Also using the new King coil overs. Or maybe the Procomp, still not sure.



My question is, what are your opinions on each of the 6" lift? Procomp? Fabtech? Skyjacker? Pros and cons to each? I want a truck I can offroad occasionally. Ok quite a bit. lol.

Pricewise what will each run for the kit? And in regards to keeping the suspension in its tip top form, I have heard some of the lifts change angles of components in a bad way... Any word on this?

I was just posting the same topic.I also have a 3'' body lift kit and spacers but i am thinking of getting rid of them after 6'' susp kit when i install it.I do not want to exaggerate the look of my truck.Besides if you are thinking to add more ponnies like (intake,exhaust maybe a supercharger that kind of height could be dangerous in my opinion)My 2 cents though

Whatever. Yes guys what do you say Skyjacker?Fabtech?Rancho?Procomp?CST?

As far as i know steering stabilizer is important cause we all have kind of tolerable or not tolerable vibration issues plus front drive shaft(Driveline angles is a vey important issue if we do not want terrible vibration??) and steering rack calibration .Which kit fits best and has an answer for these problemss any help would be great.

They are all good lifts. There was a member here who recently posted that he was not happy with the ride of the 3 inch Skyjacker kit, which is a replacement coilover shock. That is the only negative comment that I have heard. I have not talked with anyone who has the new CST lift, but they have an excellent reputation. All the reviews I've read of the 4 inch Rancho, 6 inch Skyjacker, Pro Comp, and Fabtech lifts have been good.
