Alright peeps im going to be lifting my truck 6in and i just want to know what is the best out there? money doesnt grow on trees around here but at the same time i dont want a cheap junk lift that i have to replace bushing or something later down the road. i only want to do this once. Im looking for a 6in kit that performs good on and off the road. So what do you think would be the best?
also any pics of truck with 6in lifts running 37s would be helpful! thanks!!
Good call. Just search away. Only real difference between the two is with Thuren it take a little more time and Thuren helps you decide what's best for your truck so you get exactly what you need/want nothing more nothing less and carli has a bunch of "kits" for you to choose from. Thuren is just a touch cheaper. Both products will be the strongest and longest lasting parts of your truck.

Gross Understatement. Carli offer mulitple shock levels for the 6" including Bilstein 5160s, 7100s, 9100s, king pintop 2.5, standard 2.5, and 3.0. I believe don does fox 2.0, king 2.5 or King 3.0. Further, Don uses long arms, Carli uses radius arms.
If You select Kings, Both Carli and Thuren use custom valving profiles but Carli also has a few more proprietary tuning variations to the shock, most importantly Sage throws in his own piston found to help the shock repsond better rather than utilizing the stock king piston as Don does.
The above doesn't mention all the differences but many of the major ones. Overall, Carli and Thuren are the top two contenders and you'd be happy with either one!
Carli is what I run and it is beyond a proven suspension system. From the mountains to some of the harshest desert environments of Southern Baja and it has brought me home every time.

I was just saying its much easier for someone to go choose a kit, and carli has kits. Just look at there website. Kits all over the place. Carli also has a TON of stuff that is not on their site.
I was not putting down carli. I was just stating the obvious. You want a kit go to carli site and buy one. You can't buy a kit from Thuren site, last time I checked.
Just a statement bro.

If you are looking at carli talk with this guy or George at 8lug.
67 post a link to your YouTube vids. He has done some really cool stuff with his truck. And it's one of the best looking on the road today I think.

Ps
i just copied Ian and swapped out Carli for Thuren lol.
Or ask this guy for some links to what his truck can do. He has done some GNARLY stuff in his Thuren truck.
His truck is a freaking beast. A big long beast whale. Ha

Gotcha, came off blunt but wasn't meant to be. Merely saying you're correct but expanded a bit. Both awesome suspensions!
