Default Lift Count

While reading all the lift threads I thought of this. Vote how you like....if you want to just go with suspension do that or if you have a body lift go for total lift.

Mine is the 3" Black Diamond, which really measures well over 4" in front. The springs went bad in the rear, so Superlift sent replacement springs from their 4" lift. In the end with all the mods (winch, bumpers front and rear, etc.), I netted 3"+ total. So, it's a 4" lift kit that gives 3" net over stock, sorta kinda.

I have a Superlift 4in that netted over 5in in frt, a little over 4in in rear. I replaced the stock frt bumper with a Fabtech pre-runner, the frt still has 5in. I added a 1 3/4in spacer to the rear because of the tools and gear I carry. Plus I have a 1in body lift. Total= 6in across the board with a little more in the rear.

RK 3.5 inch. I was over 5.5 inch net when I first got installed, but I think it has settled a little. Either thsat or I've gotten used to it. Still over 4.5, if I had to guess

Voted on 3.5" total lift...Currently have a 1" MORE body lift w/a 1" TeraFlex front coil spacer on 33's...Planning on getting a 2.5" coil lift and upgrading to 35s once the 33s wear off....
