Looking for a little more lift - suggestions?

[chevy15]

I leveled with a 2.25" Ready Lift Kit but I'm looking for a little bit more - maybe another 1-2" - any suggestions? Possibly 1-2" spacers? if I did that what kind of damage do I risk to the ball joints, etc.

 

Would some kind of shocks, possibly Bilstein shocks?

Go right to a 6" lift like BDS. You wont regret it.

I'm with CDH on this one

Yup. Any more than 2.5" is going to have problems unless you get control arms and if you're going to get control arms you might as well go 6" and drop the front diff.

would this be on top of level kit or would they take that out?

 

6" huh? seems a little much - do they make a 2-3" - I'm not as young as I used to be! lol

 

thanks

You wont like how the truck rides on stacked leveling kits. And your ball joints, CV's and wheel bearings wont like you for stacking leveling kits either.

 

Just man up and do a full on lift kit.

I just dropped $600 (with install) on a level kit two months ago, just hate the thought that I threw $600 away.

You would throw away a lot more money stacking leveling kits when your balljoints, cvs and wheel bearings give out.

What about a 1.5" body lift or even up to a 3"?...

[Vic15]

I have the Fabtech 6 inch lift on my 2015 GMC Sierra. I believe Fabtech makes a 4 inch lift as well.

 

The local 4 Wheel Parts seems to be pretty impressed by Fabtech even though they didn't sell or install mine.

I have the 4" Fabtech and it's great. I haven't had any issues at all. I'm running 33x12.50x20 Toyo Rt's on a 20x10 -24 offset wheel. No rubbing or trimming. That kit was $700

Push-up bra, perhaps?

1.5" zone body lift with your level would be good.

wouldn't that ruin my balls joints, cv joints etc as others have suggested?

just worried as others have suggested it ruining my ball joints, cv joints etc over time

[fondupot]

a body lift raises the body off the frame to give lift, instead of altering suspension geometry to gain lift.
