I'd suggest Fabtech or RCD. I'd suggest a 35x12.50 tire on a 10 inch wide 16, 17, 18 or 20 inch wheel.

I have been doing a lot of research on this lately and I am planning on going with FABTECH which is a true 6" lift if I can find the kit in black. RCD is a good lift but a little more in price.

Around $1800. I havn't priced it much just been researching the kit. I like that it is a full 6" kit.

Why do you suggest a 10 inch wide wheel and not the 9 inch?

im pretty sure fabtech only makes the black kits now, when i was gettin mine i wanted the blue and only could find black, and i had to look real hard to find the blue kit for my dads suburban. when i had it installed they said that to many people complained of the blue colors, and only a certain few wantd the color, so they changed it to black. that was a year or so though.

and those wheels look sick quackaddict, if your truck is black. if not get the chrome rings.

yeah I have a beige truck and don't want bright blue suspension. Those are KMC XD Series wheels called Enduro's. They have them chrome, and black.
