I can give you all sorts of info if you tell me the truck you'll want to install it on, the trucks gears if known,tire size desired, and a guess of how much lift.

Is it a solid front axle or IFS? If you get a chance talk to some of the 'wheelers in your area.

Depends on the Configuration of the truck. IFS, stait, coils, leafs, etc...

If it is a Dodge, I would highly recomend anything skyjacker. It is what I have on my truck, but is solid. They have great support also, and the price is good. I think I paid just under $500 and got new springs, not spacers. Everything was included. Shocks, susp. links, bushings, U Bolts all powder coated.

If it is a IFS Chevy, Whiplash is nice, but big $$$. I also like the RCS lift for the newer Chevys. Instead of having to cut off the front A Arm mounts and using new ones, they use a knuckle with a droped section in it. Very trick, durable, and the most ground clearance for an IFS Chevy.

Just post what it is and I would be more than happy to help.

I screwed up. RCD suspension is who I am thinking of.

I would recomend anything with a solid sxle. IFS is hard on the pocket to lift and maintain.

I have been building allot of trucks for a few years now. The brand of lift I would recomend depends on the truck. I was never really happy with TrailDisaster or Rancho. These are lifts for guys who want to drive on the street. The difference being that you can spend the same money and get a lift built for abuse.

SkyJacker, SpuerLift, RCD, Fabtech make some very good stuff that is HD. Made to jump.
