I am new to diseal Trucks this is my first, I want to put a lift on. Im looking at the zone,procomp, fab tech. I see pro comp has a lift shield warranty, to cover parts if the factory warranty is voided. what lifts will not ruin the ride or screw up the geometry of the cv axels an tie rods. what are you guys happy with what are you not. I would like to run a 34 or 25 on a 10" rim

I have done ready lift stage 4 sst on both my LML's with great success. I run 35's on 9.5" wheel, with zero rubbing. No need for anymore lift than 4" s to clear 35's...

I did rancho shocks on the 15 and it wasn't bad almost stock. I did fox 2.0's on the 16 and it rides better than stock. The kit comes with a 2" drop spacer for the front differential to keep cv angles stock or slightly higher depending on how much you crank it up.

Buy BDS and get fox shocks. BDS make great lifts and have great customer service. I use to work for them marketing wise and have put many on myself. This lift will not ruin anything on your truck.

So you worked for them huh? Bet your unbiased...


You've owned and daily driven a few LML's then if your willing to offer advise right? Or are you just pumping up a company that lines your pockets?

5 inch sorry figured I'd correct myself on that. For the wheels they are 20x10 -19 offset fuel hostage wheels. I'm running 35s under it cranked up rubs a little, but believe me when I say. Hay wagons ride better the way it is now haha. I took it out last week usually it's parked during winters but drive to back yard to pull my 6.5 out needless to say I was embarrassed how bad it was. Hope my upper ca are still good.
