down2hunt Report post Posted September 29, 2013 Hey guys, I'm planning one putting a 6" lift on my 2002 1500HD silverado. Do any of you guys have any recommendation on what brand and what shop you guys have experience with? Thanks, I appreciate all your advice. JD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector Report post Posted September 30, 2013 I have a 6" RCD lift on my f150, installed by superduty hq. Havent had any problems with it. Keep in mind you will probably have to buy a programmer to get the horsepower you will lose with the larger tires you will run with the lift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted September 30, 2013 +1 a little much and too many chances of breakage, wheel bearing, ball joints, cv issues, etc. just my opinion from fixing lots and lots of lifted trucks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prowlerMan Report post Posted September 30, 2013 My vote would be a rcd lift. Had a 6" lift on the same truck you have and never had any problems with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector Report post Posted September 30, 2013 +1 I wouldnt do it again. If I could do it all over again I would have just put a leveling kit on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RCD I have an Avalanche and the 6" was perfect and completely changed the truck for the better. BDM Customs in Tempe will probably be the best deal you can find anywhere.

ccran Report post Posted October 2, 2013 I have a 6" Fabtech on my '06 Silverado. This will be the only truck I own with a lift. Other than look cool, it serves no other purpose. It costs more for tires, fuel and parts that take a beating from being lifted. Have replaced the hub/wheel bearing three times now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
