Default Looking to get a lift that can handle..

Okay I'm checking out this lift kit..
I want something that can handle a little offroading. Nothing too crazy but i dont want to get something thats going to break or that i have to be super scared about taking out..
Heres the link for it. Tried asking ma dad what he thought and he thinks it would be good but hes not 100%.

What do yall think?
Would this one be good to get or is there something better around the same price range?

Honestly I would
Go with procomp and only the 6inch. I think 7.5 would
Be waay to tall and make it unstable. This is coming from the guy that only does 2inch lifts or long travel kits tho. Just my opinion.

if you can afford it go with a BDS lift.. theyre a little bit more cash but have lifetime warranty free replacement of broken parts and are the best lift out there IMO im gettin an 8 inch put on mine and its just worth the extra money

if going with procomp then go procomp stage 2 its better for offroading.. and lifting a truck is fine if you get the wheel and tire backspacing right

Well I'll be driving streets more than anything, offroading only occasionally.. Love the lifted look!
Only downer is having to drive so far to get to school. Sucks up gas like no other!

Well when you lift it your gas mileage is going to get worse. Depends on the tires and gearing that you choose also.
