Best Lift For 2011 4x4?

Black2011 · August 23, 2011

Im kinda shopping around at what the best lift is for a 2011 sierra 1500? looking to acheive similair to factory suspension geometry, as well as clearance and retention of factory axles and shocks. (preffered)

I've seen fabtech has a 5, and a 7" both 995, But I also considered a levelling kit.

also, while Im at it, what about offroad bumpers? i hit 2 deer last year with my dodge, and it was 80 bucks for a bumper. This one would cost thousands. road armour makes one for 2500-3500, but no half tons.

U didn't see a fabtech for 995 u saw a rough country. To me the best bang for your Buck is zone 6.5"

No more then 1100 on lift alone.

Still gotta buy a wheel and tire package too. Might just levell for now.

I've heard this is a pretty good lift for the money http://zoneoffroad.com/product?ki=61&gr=-1.

That price kinda limits you..particularly when talking about retaining factory geometry. You have an expensive truck, so don't cheap out on the suspension.

good lift is gonna run you a couple thousand. at least $2500 not counting install. add $500 - $700 for that and another duce for wheels and tires.

BEST lift if do not have Auto-Ride by far IMO is BDS

BEST lift if you do have Auto-Ride is Fabtech again IMO.

Basing my opinion of best on price, ease of install, maintaining a factory ride and geometry.

I'm limited on my Avalanche because of the Auto-ride and Auto-Level options, Fabtech is my only choice, but they have been OUTSTANDING in answering all my questions and working with me to make sure that everything is how I want it..

I had my BDS kit installed for $2200.

BDS gives you a lifetime warrenty. Zone is their "knockoff" or "sister" company.... If you are not worried about the warrenty i would go w/ Zone, then BDS. If you want to go big go with FTS.
