Just curios as to what kind of a lift kit y'all use, if you use them. I 'm thinking of lifting my truck.

Skyjacker Baby! [sm=smiley20.gif]

I've thrashed Superlifts and Trailmasters on a number of vehicles. My Rancho lift never bent, but rode like a brick. I loved the Skyjacker kits I've had and that I've installed on other people's stuff.

Thanks hun! I'll look into them here in a lil while. See how much money I need to start saving up. I'll just have to find some where to do the install once I get everything. That shouldn't be a problem though.

I have a Skyjacker. I like it a lot although haven't had it too long and never had any other lifted trucks. I highly reccomend it.

yeah skyjacker seems to be the best bang for the buck, and ive heard from others with rams that the ride is great. ive used many diff lifts on jeeps , and even then the skyjacker systems were most liked. im planning on the 5.5 lift with no spacers or blocks if i can .

Yah, DEF. get the system. You do NOT want to stack rear blocks. Very much bad things can happen. And I know in Michigan it's illegal. The only way to go is with new lift springs in the rear, not blocks. It's a bit more $$$, but it's worth it to do it right.

How high you thinking of going?

More than likely 3 inches. I've thought about 5 though. I'm not sure about that one though. I work at a bank, and have to wear skirts everyonce in a while. It's "graceful"[sm=icon_rofl.gif] enough getting in and out of my truck in one now.

Go with a 5" lift and 35" tires. Then come to work for me. By the way, I have a strict dress code- women are only allowed to wear skirts and dresses. [sm=smiley2.gif]
