if you don't want something too crazy and different than all the other kits go for a 4" lift kit from bds or zone lift kit

The price is the same for the 4" and 6.5 zone kits.. so besides the height difference, why go with the 4"?

Is there a good reason to go with the 4" over the 6.5"

I tried the code but it said expired but i can't complain about the price. Now i just have to wait for a good deal on tires. Btw do you have any new updated pics of your ride

Just preference i suppose. I was going to do the 6.5 lift at first but i didn't want to be like every single silverado out on the road. So i went with the 4.5" lift. Plus i wanted to run 35s on the smaller lift cause i like the look of more meatier tires and less gap around the fenders.

 

But to each their own right

Hahaha! Nice!!

personal preference. I used to have a lifted duramax which was pretty high as well as a bunch or other 6" or higher lifted trucks. I still want a lifted truck, but not as high anymore, so at least for me the 4.5" kit is perfect

I went with the 4 inch BDS for somewhat similar reasons. I wanted to add a little bit of off road capability, while at the same time, keeping the truck somewhat "professional" looking to the average person. I often meet clients at their homes, so I couldn't have a truck that was too neck - though I'll admit, if I wasn't using this truck as my daily driver, I would have gone with a bigger lift.

Good choice. Its lifted but not over done and you can still use it for normal work stuff.

Any contraindications for towing a travel trailer and one of these 4-6" lifts? I was thinking 1100 lb tongue weight and 7500 lbs is a lot of strain and drop shank.

So let me get this straight. I have noticed that some of you have got the 4.5 zone lift and the fronts have raised more than 4.5 inches. Some almost as high as 6 to level out with the rears. This worries me as I only have 7 inches from the top of the onstar to the bottom of garage door. Once I do this lift and add 35s, I'm afraid it's not fitting in garage. Am I understanding this correctly?

I did the 6" BDS on 35s and I think my truck increased 8" overall when measured to the XM antenna. It measures 82" now and fits under 7ft garages with 2 inches to spare. As a word of caution, not all 7' garages are actually 7' tall in all places. Drive cautiously through parking structures.
