    savin for a lift ... ?

    i want a lift but i can't make up my mind which one i want.

    so since were a small group of 4x4-ers here i thought this would be a good place to talk about this lol

    i wanted a rough country 6" and now i don't really know. now i'm kinda leavin twards RCD and Superlift. maybe even CST.

    I had a SkyKlunker on my 05 and the front CV rubbed the frame on drivers side. Even did it when we transfered lift to my buddies 03. Put the super lift on my 99 and it is a much better designed lift in my opinion.No clearance issues and it comes with braces for the front drop as well. Plus i got it to my door for $1225 from NTWonline.com The only problem with the superlift as we all know though is the stiff shocks. But like i said, much better design than skyklunker. Stay away from Full Traction, lot of venders stopped carrying them due to problems with parts. Hope this helps. Just checked, looks like its still onsale for $1195!! Comes with shocks. Also forgot to mention that the super lift won the shootout in 4 Wheeler for the best bang for your buck.

    Fab-tech or Pro-comp are the only way to go.

    i heard that fab-tech makes the front wheels stick out 2" further than the rear, is that correct? or was it a different company.
