6" of suspension lift is ok - provided it's a solid kit that accounts for keeping the CV angles at or near stock levels. Adding the body lift shouldn't put much more stress on the front end components - but the issue is gonna come in with what size tires you choose to run. With 6" of proper lift you'll clear 37s which alone are too large for IFS front ends - especially on 20" wheels. What size tire were you planning on running with 9" of lift?

You plastidipped your chrome bumpers right? Did you do anything special prepping them to make sure the plastidip stuck good? I am going to try to do mine this weekend.

I had painted bumpers (SLT Sport)
I had my rear bumper and my side steps sand blasted and bedlined by line-x.

Ok, missed the Sport part. I just got done plasti dipping mine last night. I put four coats on and just got done taking the masking off and they turned out sweet, if I do say so myself. I will post some pics when I get a chance.

Did my fuel door too.

Looks good...I like it.

I wonder how this would look on Silver? I've never been a big fan of a bunch of chrome on a pickup.

I think it would look sweet on silver. I am working on blacking out all the chrome on my truck right now. I am really liking the black/white look. The contrast between the two colors really makes the badges and such stand out. I think it would do the same thing with a silver truck.
