Re: want to put on a lift, any pics

Just go with 6 because you will regret it later. You will want to go higher. And it depends on what tire size you want to clear with the fenders.

Re: want to put on a lift, any pics

I personally think that the front being higher looks better. Like someone else stated go with 6" because you'll only want more. Heck, I have 6" and want mine higher!!!

Re: want to put on a lift, any pics

Do at least 6" and at least 35" tire. I have a Fabtech 6" lift with 33X12.50 tire on a 17" Motometal rim. I wish I had got 35" tires, but the cost jumps a lot between 33" and 35" tires and also between 17" and 18" rim. I want taller but will stay with what I have. Next truck higher. Don't forget your gas millage is going down down down.

At that point, why would you drop the front IFS down so far? I mean if you're going that big, you're obviously spending the money, do a SFA swap in the front and do it right.
