ANyone know what the superlift 4 or 6 inch lift kit costs for a 2500 (if different from a 1500 kit). What other things are recommended to do that are NOT in the kit? Whats an average expected install time/cost? Wonder if I have to do my 2: front spacer on this to make level..

And what kind of MPG loss can I expect since I am sure to go up to 35 inch tires...

Pics would be great of people who have it installed.
thanks kevin

a 6" kits is about $1500 avg. you wont have to level it, the kit raises 6" in front, and uses a 4" block in the rear. dont know about installation prices tho.

 

[Chauncy]

should be less than 1500 for it

and if you're serious about it, get KORE not Superlift, the superlift doesn't ride good at all, I have a vibration and the shocks are just ass

 

[2-Stroke]

Chauncy - do you have your Tcase clocked?

 

[prourl]

KORE looks expensive heh.. any idea on price?

 

[2-Stroke]

yea, i just called them:
basic 1540
middle 3080
race 4180

 

[prourl]

yeesh heh.. wonder how much better the ride is than say a superlift ... on highway which is where i am concerned most.

 

[Chauncy]

about 1,000 times better

I have superlift, if you value ANY ride comfort at all do the Kore, it's worth the extra money

 

[prourl]

how do you know it is so much better than what you run? Have you rode in a truck with this suspension and if so which (basic, middle or race). I cant seem to justify 3000 for a 2.5 lift....

I rode in a KORE equipped 2500 two weeks ago. It was the Pace system (basic), and it had the Fox steering stabilizer, and Bilstein 5150's. Here's a link to another discussion on KORE suspensions. And, it rode better than stock, and even better than my truck. Although I suspect that has a lot to do with tire selection. My Procomp MT's are wearing well, but ride like sh*t.

What size/make tires did it have specifically?

 

[jimboman]

The wheels were Weld's (don't remember the model). The Tires were 35" Toyo's. I think the wheels were 17" or 18".

 

[prourl]

so these tires made a difference you think?

 

[Chauncy]

the Toyo Open Country M/T is the best tire out there for comfort and looks on lifted vehicles

it rides like a street tire, looks badass, and actually does ok if you actually use your truck off road

my next tires will be the toyo's in a 37x13.50r18

I was going to get them this time but I was talked into NItto's because I could get a better deal on them, and since I was buying tires AND wheels I needed to keep the cost down

 

[prourl]

they are like 250-400 a tire! OUCH ! How long they supposed to last?

 

[Chauncy]

in lifted vehicles, unless you plan to run cheap, bias ply small 33-35" super swampers on 15's, prepare to drop 200-400 a tire

prourl,

if 3000 is steep for 2.5" of good lift, check out www.rockkrawler.com
they offer 7" of full on racing lift for 5000, or 3000 for 7" of racing upfront and add a leaves in the rear....
