I have been in some serious debate as to what to do about a lift. I have been looking at the tuff country 6in lift or a much cheaper 3in lift that has 3in in the front using torsion keys and a 1in block in the rear. I am looking for any suggestions. I would really like to see photos if any one out there has these lifts on there trucks so that I can compare. I am also wanting to run 33x12.50's possibly 35x12.50 if i decide to go with the 6in. Please post some pics there worth a thousand words.

I just installed Readylift torsion keys on my 2005 GMC Sierra, I got about 2 1/2 of lift in front. Truck set level now. I thinking about 2" body lift.

I think it depends on the tires and wheels you want to run. If you go big you will need the truck up high enough to clear the tires when turning so the 6 inch lift might be the thing for you. Make sure whichever wheel tire combo you go with fits in the wheel wells or lift it high enough to clear the wheels.

One other thing to think about. We just had to LOWER my wifes jeep from the 5 inch lift that was on there back to stock due to the fact that the wheels could not be aligned properly and it kept getting a sever wobble in the front. So 1300 dollars later it now rights straight and true and its lower. GO figure.

I'm not sure if that is a jeep thing or something inherent to all lifted vehicles. make sure you invest in a good steering stabilizer.

Its probably a Jeep thing. We "wouldn't understand."
