I have Fabtech. It's ok. Can't speak for the others. But if I could do it again.... I'd do an 8" Rize lift. The extra 2" isn't a whole lot, but it will allow for wider wheels or more backspacing without rubbing.

I also really like Rize's front cross member. Check it out online. Many people think you'd need to go to 37's with anything taller than 6", but it's really not true. I have a total of 9" with 35's with a lot of backspacing so it has a wider stance.

I have the 6" rough country kit and I love it . It rides and drives like stock. Lots of people on this forum run this kit and are happy. Don't let the price fool you this kit is made using really beefey parts. Here's a pic of my truck

I saw your avatar and thought you were using pics of my truck! Lol. I have some pics of mine in my profile. Very similar.

Nice looking truck you have there. I usually don't like fender flares but those look awesome.

Thanks. I usually don't like them either. But these are a bit cleaner looking. I'm considering taking them off for a while. Need a change.
