BDS or RCD they in my opinion are the best 6" lift kits out there.

Damn Right on the RCD, havent ever dealt with the BDS but I have heard good things. there is a pretty big CST following on this site too, I would say that if ya want 6" go with rcd, if ya want 4" go with Rancho, and if ya want anything bigger than 6" go with CST. JMHO -Jeff

Cognito is the only way to go. I have the 10-12" kit. Nice kit..very impressed...the nice thing about Cognito kits is that they are all bolt-on...bullet proof requires some welding...

I did alot of research and found that Cognito was very highly recommended. I ordered their complete kit for my '05 HD -

7-9" '01-'05 GM 8-Lug front system with pitman/idler kit
Upper control arm kit, 9" upgrade
Dula shock Hoop Kit GM 2500HD
4 Fox remote reservoir front shocks 980-99-030-A
2 For remote reservoir rear shocks 980-99-034-A
Deaver Leaf Spring (1 pair), 6" overstock
2" block and u-bolt kit

Also ordered a set of Yukon 4.56 gears for the front and rear. After all this I decided not to lift the truck. I'll be doing alot of towing with this one so I figured it would be better to keep the stock ride height and put some 22s on it instead. Yes, it is all for sale :)
