Lift Kit
Pickup trucks serve many functions, whether hauling, towing, or just getting you from point A to B. For many truck owners, ride height is important. Raising ride height allows you to put larger tires on your vehicle without clearance issues, gives you a better view on the road, and helps you tackle obstacles when you take it off of the pavement. It also makes a statement and gives your truck a personality. There are two main options of lift kits: suspension and body. Body lift kits replace the body mounts with thicker, taller, and firmer components, raising the body off of the frame (typically) from one to three inches. Suspension kits replace your pickup's springs, links, and other suspension parts to provide anywhere from two to eight inches (on average) of lift. Often owners will do a combination of both a body and suspension lift to reach a desired ride height.
When choosing a lift kit for your vehicle, the first step is confirming the year, make, model, engine, and drivetrain type. Next, determine if you want to use a body lift kit or a suspension lift kit. From the remaining options available that are compatible for your vehicle, select the lift height you want as well as the kit that meets your needs and budget. Make sure you also purchase any additional parts that might be required for higher lifts such as steering and bumper extensions to complete your project and provide proper operation.
