Default Need info on lifts

I'm planning on lifting my 2004 lariat F-150 in the summer. I want a 6 inch lift but i have no clue about them. The top 3 I have looked at are BDS, Fabtech, and Pro-Comp. Any help is welcome!

IMHO, zone is the better of the budget alternatives than RCX. Reason being is that zone is made by bds and rcx is not made in the US. Parts of it are made by Rancho as well. My other reasoning towards zone is that it can safely be stretched if you want to lift it up more. Rcx does not have that ability.

Trailmaster 6" lift here. Built really well IMO and comparable in pice to RCX and zone in price. Keeps all the front components at the stock angles and no spacer above the front struts, it's a full replacement strut. Got mine from 4wheel parts.

I would choose between Zone or Pro comp, sure gets you out of any trouble plus if you will need any necessary adjustment.
