What's up y'all. I think I'm posting this in the correct forum, but please correct me if I'm wrong. I have a 2012 f150 fx4 off road, I put a 2.5" RC level/lift in it a few months back and I have 33's on it. I don't dislike what I have now, but this spring I want to put a 6" lift in. I like the RCX lifts because I had one in my jeep, had one in my old truck, and I've got one in my truck now, and I don't think the price is too bad. Anybody have any other suggestions for similar sized lifts? I plan to run 35's on some fuel maverick's which I know cause some rubbing at full crank depending on what offset, but I can deal with that. Thanks for the help!
No experience with the RCX lifts, but I am on my second truck with a BDS lift and I have been am very happy with them.
I bet those coil overs ride smooth as hell...I was actually looking at some BDS lifts today. Little more pricey 😬 but I'm sure they're quality. Did you install yourself?
Rough country is now making their own struts for the lifts as well now. I'll probably upgrade mine soon. This is mine with a 6 inch RCX with 20x10's -19 offset.
BDS 6 inch on mine. I hear good things from Zone as well which is a more budget focused lift made by BDS. No rubbing with 35's on 20x10 -24offset on my setup
I have a BDS 4" and had to trim some for 35s, but I think you might be happier with either 35s with a 4" or 37s if you go with 6". I live right down the street from you (if you live on base) in Aberdeen.
On my 2010 I ran a 6" Rough Country with 20x10 -12 offset with 35's. I liked the lift, my only complaint was the rear shocks caused the rear end to jump around a lot more than factory. Other than that it was a good kit and if I decided to lift this one, I wouldn't hesitate going with RC again.
