Cannot decide on Lift
Hey everyone, I own an 06 xlt 5.4 4x4. I recently have been doing alot fo searchign here and on another forum about Lift kits as I will hopefuly be doing one soon. I want to do a 6" suspension lift but i cannot decide on which to do. Ive read many threads about comparison of some and i knwo you get what you pay for but with that said i will mainly be doing it all for looks. Probably little to absolutley no offroad. I was readin that the RCX with bilstiens upfront was a good cheaper choice but i also read that some people had problems with them. but then I was looking at the BDS, seems to be the most highquality lift in my opinon but with the different leafs, shocks and the stearing stabilizer its nearly 3200$. As i belive you get what you pay for i want that one but the price is just killer. and then i was thinking to myself that i prob wont be going offroad does it really matter?

I did a Fabtech lift and haven't looked back besides the fact I wish I did 8" kit. Though I got it for a steal at $2000, then I stacked another 2". Hell I even got a steal on install at $400.

I have the 4" Rancho, but the RCX 6" was my second choice. I just found a better deal on the rancho at the time..
As far as stabilizers go, this turned me the other direction instantly. Link

Bilsteins will be a tad stiffer than factory, ive ran them. Tires are what will kill alot of the ride. Mud terrains are made to be tough and will be a bigger factor than you might think on the ride.

Cool, yea i figured the tires were going to kill the ride, thats why i was going to try and see if the bilsteins would compensate it. you said you had them before..is it worth the 288$ \? or i guess that depends on personal ride opinion.
