Rc 2" Leveling Vs Rc 3" Suspension Lift

[Dukers]

Yo. End of school today marked the first day of a long awaited and much needed spring break. I decided that I'm going to try and get a bunch of things done to my truck this break, as in finally try to get my sound system ordered / installed (hahaha.) and see about a leveling kit / suspension lift. i feel like a **** without my truck at least LEVELED just because of the way it sits forward. it just bothers me. and of course i cruise around the forums all the time just reading and looking at all the trucks as I have been for months but i havent really posted anything, So hello and its nice to be back.

 

My question:

 

I want a suspension lift for my truck, but i dont want it to be too high and look like a tool. I at least want to do the RC 2" Leveling kit, but i was wondering this: If I decided to get the RC 3" suspension lift, does that make it give that leveled look as well but with an aditional lift? does the Leveling kit provide a "suspension lift" or a just a "body lift" as it levels? anyone have any suggestions or reviews of the RC 3" suspension lift? and since i cant do this myself even though all you guys do it, where should I go to get it done and stuff and will they fix the allignment for me and shizz?

 

Edit: To help make one of my questions easier to understand kinda, I was wondering if the 2" leveling kit actually provided any more clearance than compared to just stock. ha.

 

any opinions or suggestions would be nice. thanks

Here is a link to the install instructions for a 2wd:

Looks simple to me. I would get the kit with arms. I did.

 

Here is a link to the dealer list on the RC site.

If you want it installed I would look at giving them a call.

 

Here is the 3" kit installed on my 4wd.

 

Good Luck.

Yes the 3 inch RC lift gives you the leveled look. Its a 3 inch front lift and a 1 or 1.5 inch in the rear. It looks great for the price. But for about 100 bucks cheaper you can level it... If you dont do too much off roading i would sugest the leveling kit

The RC 3" kit is JUNK. Do a search on these forums and you'll find alot of members have tried them and removed them for "REAL" lifts including me!!!

Yeah ive already tossed it to the side.

 

Im now looking at a Fabtec 6", Rancho Quicklift, or a Rancho 4".

 

 

I was just between the 2 Ranchos, but then i got into my buddy's 02 yukon and hes got a fabtec 6 on there... idk what to do now! not like i have the money or anything though haha
