2015, wanting to lift. How big? Brand? Issues?


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to put a lift kit on my 2015 Chevy Silverado just running into a few questions has anybody had any issues with their left how big did you go and what brand I had a 2011 Dodge Ram with a 6-inch superlift that ended up giving me vibration issues in 4-wheel drive I know superlift makes an 8-inch kit for these trucks and I was curious on how it would compare to a six-inch Zone Lift. I'm happy with the fuel mileage on my truck now what is everybody else getting lifted my truck is a crew cab Z71 Black LTZ

A search would answer all those common questions. How big is up to you. Do you want 2 inches or 12 inches? You will loose probably 4 mpg's give or take (though you can find out more specifics in threads asking that already). Not sure about issues but again there are threads about specific lifts and you can ask members who have that lift.

 

As far as how the 8 inch would compare to the 6 inch, it is 2 inches taller...

best quality lifts are BDS, Fabtech, Cognito and zone from what i have seen on here for the past year or two. there are cheaper brands out like rough country while they make leveling kits just fine i dont know if i would trust there 6 inch lift. again just from what i have seen on here a lifted truck with 35s that weigh 80 lbs is gonna get 15-16 highway maybe 6 with the air dam on and some 33s maybe a little better. you might as well tune afm out while ur lifting it because it will never come on after that

When ever I do a search I never pull up anything but then some one post a link to exactly what I was looking for making me feel like a big dumb a. But anyways, I am running a ZONE 6.5" and 35" Toyo MTs and do not have the 1st complaint. its hard to complain about what you knew was going to happen. I took these things into consideration before I installed the lift and tires,,, Road noise....You are taking a very smooth and quiet truck and some what making it not as smooth and noisier in the cab....Bottom line is it effects the comfort but not enough that I care and MTs are loud. I also have 22" wheels so that doesn't help. The MTs for a 22 is ridiculously $priced$...You cant park in your garage anymore (I had other options). MPG went from 20ish to 16-17. I know others that are 14 and 15 on a good day running this set up.

thanks for the information. my last 2 trucks were lifted but i just hated the vibration in 4 wheel drive....it may have been because that year is prone too it anything after a level... just dont wanna be screwed on a 50k truck. ill probably go with the zone and end up running bilsteins or fox.....how are zones struts?

i was also worried about warranty. with zone i know theirs is top notch...super lift claims the same. i also talked to the dealer, they said typically it voids suspension but they try to help us out as long as its a reputable lift kit and its installed correctly. as for tuning, i would probably just go with the range for afm....i dont want to get into warranty issues there as well...lol feel free to voice
