Decided to wait on a lift.
So I've wanted to lift my truck for awhile now however I've decided to not cut corners and do it right the first time instead of kicking myself in the but later. Instead of rushing into it, I'm just gonna do a leveling kit. But later on down the road I'd love to do a rize 12". Anyone running this lift? If so post pics and how much the lift cost you. Also post pics of leveled trucks with 35s and some with 33s.

Wow! Goin with the Rize huh? Be sure to post pics when you finally get it! Not many are brave enough, or have the money! Replacing the front driveshaft would be enough to detur me cuz that gets expensive! lol

So I just looked at the instructions and the install pictures on this lift.... HOLY ****!!!!
The 6" lift on my friends Chevy 2500HD was hard enough because all his parts were rusted together.
Nothing particularly difficult about this kit but it is very involved to say the least. I would like to install one of these just to say I did lol. I hope the OP plans on doing this himself, because any shop willing to do this will require a boat load of cash and your left nut!

I don't have the Rize, but to give you an idea of what a 12" lift will look like, here's mine with a 14" lift. I sort of did what you were originally gonna do. I put a body lift and leveling kit, and then added a 6" suspension lift. It still wasn't enough for me so I traded the truck in on this one. I wish I would have just done this from the start. Of course now I wish I would of just done a straight axle swap so I would have a little more confidence about abusing it.
