Kyle 02-14-2008, 02:48 AM I would like to hear some pros and cons on suspension lifts preferable 4 to 6 inch lifts. Also for people that has them if you had it to do all over again would you have still did it. Thanks to all that can help me i am just having problems making up my mind on what to do.......... Thanks Again, Dirtymaxx07 02-15-2008, 01:40 AM Pro's. makes your truck look tuff. boosts self confidence. better ground clearence. Con's. lower fuel mileage. I'd say go for it... Kyle 02-15-2008, 02:17 AM Anyone else................ Dirtymaxx07 02-15-2008, 10:00 AM Here is a good thread to read: CST, Pro Comp, FabTech, or Cognito? Which should I go with. (http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=183173) The pictures are very helpful. littelbear 02-15-2008, 02:42 PM I have to say that almost everyone puts a suspension on their truck for the look mostly. The ground clearance is nice but the look is what most of us are after. I am counting the days to put the Cognito 4-6" lift on with some 295/70/17 Nitto's.....good luck in your decision! justinp95 02-15-2008, 03:00 PM Its not the suspenion lift that improves ground clearence, its the tire size increase.... sanderscl 02-15-2008, 03:17 PM I think it boils down to what you like. I personally love my lift and would do it again in a heart beat. Dirtymaxx07 02-15-2008, 05:11 PM Its not the suspenion lift that improves ground clearence, its the tire size increase.... True, but who keeps stock tires on a lifted truck MAX Attitude 02-16-2008, 04:39 PM I had a 7" lift on my old '96 Chevy and I wish my truck now had a lift. :( I miss the ground clearance I had at the dunes when cresting a hill....now I drag the belly. mmangels22 02-16-2008, 06:27 PM Pros Looks good Better ground clearance Can actually see down the road(see incidents before anyone else because you are higher) Good ride quality Cons Worse mpg Suspension issues possible warranty voiding tough to get into tough to park tires are more expensive and shocks too Overall though, it is personal preferance. It is wierd because I never wanted a suspension lift on my truck but now that I have one I absolutely love it. Will get a lift again and again if I can. Chevy BOY 02-17-2008, 01:13 PM ive had to many problems. mainly because of the bigger tires they cause so many steering problems. Other than that i like it. Mpg isnt to much difference. But if any one had a 2001 2500 duramax and wanted it lifted i would switch them and put mine at stock. Just to hard to work out of. But it sure looks sweet. Thats my two cents. MAX Attitude 02-17-2008, 01:41 PM I'll take the suspention lift off of your hands and give you any stock parts. :D Chevy BOY 02-18-2008, 12:54 PM I might just take you up on that. How hard is it to switch? | ||
