Lift

Ok i searched the forum and i didnt find an answer so here we go.

Im new to lifting a truck. Whats the best bang for my buck?? At work we have a Rancho system we can order and its around $1500. I dont remember how high of a lift it is though. But if you could throw some suggestions my way i would appreciate it....thanks

Re: Lift

You can get a 3" Body Lift Kit for about $325-350 depending on what type of truck you have.

The body lift is obviously the cheapest way to lift you truck and looks great. But thats it, looks only.

Re: Lift

As a rule if a mod costs 1/3 of the market value of my truck, I simply donīt do it.

Do not do a cheap lift. The cheaper you go, the more likely you are to have problems. Rancho is a good brand. Save up and be patient.

Unless you do a body lift to compensate for the suspension lift, it doesn't look right. I feel body lifts are worthless, especially if keeping the stock suspension. Mainly b/c you are not gaining any ground clearance.
