I did a search and couldnt find much information....How is the Skyjacker 6" lift? I was reading through the instructions and a few things had me concerned.
1. Clearancing the torque converter housing.
2. I guess cutting out the crossmember will always be necessary. Just a little worried about hacking up my new 45k truck!
Any info is appreciated!

No one has any comments/experience with this lift kit?

It was my #1 choice for my lift, but Katrina rolled through the day I placed my order and shipping would have taken tool long. The only bad thing I heard about it is you can't turn completely lock to lock. You can on one direction, but the steering hits a lift component going the other way.

Anyone have more insight on that? I mean, these trucks dont exactly turn circles stock!
