Thanks for the heads up TrojanDan, I did order my truck with BT but no OR. I figured since I'm gonna lift it later on down the line there was no need to purchase the OR.
I live in Carson...near Long Beach. Are you in So Cal 2?

Yeah bro, right near Pasadena. Well if you got BT, then you also have the 4.10 gears, so you definitely won't have to mess w/gears after you lift it (unless you put susp. & body lifts and then throw some 37's or larger). I would think about gettin mine w/o OR, but I like the e-locker, fog lights and skid plates (provided that they're steel, which I've heard that they are), so I don't think I can pass it up. I don't have a Titan, but I'm waitin for a 6-8" skyjacker lift, and if superlift would come out w/one, which I doubt, then I'd probably consider them as well. I think the CST is pretty good quality, but you know how it is, gotta go w/the one you trust!

I'm sure all the major manufacturers will be coming out with a 6-8" for the Titan in the near future. I wouldn't wait too long to get your Titan...these things are moving faster than expected. Skyjacker looks "super duro" I do hope they come out with one soon. I like the stance of the 8" by CST...although it was only a 2wd, it liked the overall height. The Nissan dealer in Cerritos had one on the lot...it was SWEET!

Well both Fabtech and Rancho are coming out with lifts later this year. Fabtech is suppose to be 6" and the Rancho is 4", but I think that might change to 6" as well. Both are for 4wd. Rancho is also making an adjustable coil-over that should allow front end lift up to 3", but that might be a bit much for you 4wd folks with CVs.

I"ll probably end up ordering one later this year, or I may have to wait another year depending on new options comin out in '05 or '06. I test-drove a lifted one at Performance Nissan in Duarte, and I gotta agree dude, it was badass. I had to post a new thread here the next day called "fell in love last night". I know Fabtech and Rancho are comin out w/lifts, and Skyjacker is comin out w/a 2" lift. But I don't trust Fabtech, personal experiences have been poor w/them, and Rancho is just okay in my mind. Oh well, we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
