Rize probably does not like powdercoating their lifts cause they want everyone to know that it's a Rize lift. By painting it black, to the common person not knowing much about lifts, it looks like any other lift. That's why a lot of these lift companies paint their lifts these colors that do not mtach the undercarriage. I personally don't like it. I'd rather have my chassis all the same color. JMO.

 

so when is it going on? its taking a while to get this thing on i want to see it!!!

 

That looks so sick! I wonder what the actual Rize lift that is Black looks like...

Can't wait to see it installed.. the Rize is which lift I want to go with and I have a silver truck too

 

Yeah, I know it's taking a while. I have been waiting on my leaf springs. They arrived yesterday. For some reason though, they did not press in any bushings. So now I wait for those to show up.
The lift will be installed on April 16 as a birthday present to myself.

Heres a shot of the leaf springs if anyone cares...

 

if you dont mind me asking how did the kit cost? and what will the install cost?

 

what leaf packs are those? and how much for the pair??

 

I got the Rize lift through Jack-it.com for 2600 shipped! I had to play a little price match game. The install of the lift, gears, alignment, driveshaft modification(rear) is going to run me $1500.

 

They are custom made by National Springs in CA. I waited five weeks for them! The cost was $1055 shipped. Alot of coin, but I think they are worth it.

 

I hope so for your sake, Deaver or Atlas would of been cheaper. .

 

ouch. i got 7" arc alcan springs. custom made $400... man you got hit hard there...

 

Deaver was about the same. I started telling the folks at Deaver what I was going to tow/ haul and the price went up around $800 without shipping. They kept telling me they could take their standard 4" lift springs and re-arch them to around 5.5". F-that! I didn't mind paying the money as National Springs actually listened to me when I told them what I wanted! FYI. These are not 6" springs. They should net me around 8 inches. So the price is higher because of that. To each his own. I am happy and that is all that matters.

 

What is the payload and towing capacity of your springs?

 

National Springs is a very good, and very well known shop out here in So Cal. I went tyo high school with the son of the owner...he was a bit of a celebrity (even in a high school of over 3,000 kids )

They take their custom spring builds VERY seriously.

 

I can't say enough how impressed I am with the people at National Springs. Bill, the gentleman that worked with me on my springs was great. It wasn't just about a sale. He really took an interest in what I was trying to achieve with my truck. That is a rare thing these days. Mad props to them!

 

From what I have heard from people and reputable lift shops and big name off-road warehouses....National Springs are junk...no offence or anything
