Rancho makes a 6" lift for the supercrew. I saw one just after they had finished. Looks good, but is pretty pricey. Good luck.

The truck I saw was a 4x4, but they make them for 4x2's as well.

Well, not so fast. I was looking for that 6" lift (for the 4x4) in their site with no success. So, I just e-mail them requesting information regarding that lift. Will wait until they answer.

I don't think it is available yet in any brand.

I agree JMTruck. I'm waiting to see what you get from them. I looked on their website, and a couple of others to no avail. I think it may be another "to good to be true" internet rumor. Well, let us know what they say back to you.

2 weeks ago when i took my truck to 4wheelparts to get my bodylift done their was a guy that had just gotten back his supercrew that had the 4 inch lift and 35inch bfg's. Man that was one nice truck.
the reason that rancho doesnt have any info on their web site is because the kit its self just came out on the market. The guy at 4wheelparts said that their are only about 5 trucks with that lift in the US.

So if I contacted 4 Wheel Parts, they'd be able to tell me about the 6" lift?

Chaotic,
35" tires are the largest you can install with a 3" body lift w/a little valance trimming and a couple cranks of the trosion bars. I go fishing and camping just about every weekend. In order to go to these fishing grounds we drive in 4 low, over old lava fields and let me tell you its like riding a roller coaster. You might consider a steering stabilizer as well, it helps out a great deal while off roading. Have fun

I'd like to see the 6" lift for the new f-150 4x4 also. I'm curious to see what kind of geometry they put on those cv axel joints up front. Today I saw a 6" lift on an IF suspension 4x4 chevy which is similar to a f-150 (**** Cepek kit). With the angles the joints and shafts were at I'd be afraid to ever use 4-wheel drive. But hopefully thats just gonna be a chevy problem
