definatly go 6 inch with 37's no more then 23.5 wide with at least 3.5 inch offset. And for god sake add a leaf or 2 in the rear, trucks are meant to sit higher in the back not level as most of these kits make them. use a kit with new springs not the god aweful spacers. here is a pic of mine

i think he meant 13.5

theres onlt a few kits out there that use spacers, and those kits are not very high quality and the ride is poor

even the companies that offer spacers are generally frowned upon for the quality they offer..that why the pro comp kit is rarley purchased and most stores recommend another kit, tuff country also offers a spacer lift and that too is not a common lift

also, did anyone ever thiknk about this?..when you lift a truck many people fear the tailgate will be too high to load stuff, One way that suspension companies tried to make lifts mroe appealing was not to put the tail gate too much higher..they acheived that in this manner

stock truck have a rake, generally 2-3 inches

that means that the tailgates sits higher then it would if the truck were level...my 5" superlift, added bumped up the front 9 inches after tires, bumped the backup 6.5" after tires, and only bumped the tailgate up about 4" when its open
