Default Is the sky the limit or is it 6"?

I'm really not a big fan of the body lifts, so I was wondering if anyone makes a suspension lift bigger than 6" for my torsion bar suspension.

i dont think so but if you crank the torsion bars (which it looks like you already did) and add a 6" lift you can get a couple more inches tops. what you got against body lifts?

The ten inch kit doesnt actually look all that bad, the 14 inch kit looks like it would kill the truck though! But you could easily go with a ten inch kit and still have it look good with 38's.

damn that whiplash 10 lift is sick....if i would of know that was out there when i was buyin a lift kit that very well could have been what i would have bought...my only thing agaist body lifts is the rear hitch sits low and looks kinda silly to me, but i shouldnt be one to talk because i had a body lift on my last truck haha....at least body lifting a dodge looks so much better compared to body lifting a chevy or ford. Rams are about the only trucks you cant tell to much that its a body lift

Nah, if your going to go for it why not throw it all out there haha. Funny thing is that that 10 inch lift is cheaper than the 6 inch that I want to get lol.
