hey all, so in my debate on LT or conventional lift, I am wondering what the best 6" kits are that are out there.

I know :

Pro Comp
Fabtech
trailmaster
superlift
rough country

The fabtech with the dirtlogic shocks/coilovers looks like a really good kit, but how do the DL shocks/coilovers do against say fox coilovers/shocks?

I know That if I dont get a kit that comes with coilovers then I def. will be adding some on and they will be most likely Fox

 

i have the rough country and love it. A little confusing putting it on because the directions was messed up but it comes with everything you need and is a great price. IM thinking about upgrading to the fox shocks here soon

 

thanks TSgt Clark. Hey do you happen to have some pics of your truck you could throw up here?

 

I like BDS and Trailmaster.

BDS- quality and "no fine print" warranty

Trailmaster- most complete kit.

 

I have meaning to take pics for months. I have been so busy with work. I will get some as soon as possible

 

does bds have a six inch kit? my bds for my jeep was awesome...i like the fabtech over the pro-comp..in fact..it might just be me..but i am growing tired of dealing with 4wheel parts

 

Yes they have a 6" for sure and I thinkthey even have an 8" kit out now for 4x4s

 

I had the Rough Country 6" on my '06 SCREW and had no issues. Drove straight, stopped straight and was pretty capable off road. Only thing I noticed was that it had a bit of a "bulldog" stance to it (only inch or two), but I got used to that pretty quick.

 

Thanks guys. Im looking at the trailmaster pretty hard right now only because its the most complete kit on the market.. Second is the BDS and third is the Fabtech with dirtlogics

 

i have had all three brands of kits on different vehicles..i would not use trailmaster again..my 2 cents

 

bds for sure. its an awesome kit with the best warranty possible

 

so, do you have to get a lengthend driveshaft for the 6" kits? sorry for the ignorance, im still getting up on the f150's suspension. I know for my ranger i had to get a lengthend DS when i put the 4" kit on it

 

my fabtech came with a spacer for the rear driveline..

 

lol all i can say is f pro comp any respectable off road shop in the industry will tell you stay away from their kits except 4wheelparts. If you want the best performance go with something that will make your truck something truly unique and do circles around most of the amazing trucks on this site off-road. Go with a long travel kit for a 4wd. http://jdfabrication.com/index.php?o...d=13&Itemid=29

 

See I Dont like the way the LT kits widen the front trac width.. Thats just me.. im not going for the Pre-runner look..

what are some of the Pros/Cons of the BDS vs the Fabtech lifts?
They are about the same price, but I can get Dirt Logic Shocks/coilovers with the fabtech for the same price as the BDS.
