I just got my special ordered 14 platinum. I really like the way these trucks look with a 4.5" lift kit. I have looked at the Icon and Carli kits, but they don't offer a 4 link setup that I have seen. I want to keep the front axle from moving fore/aft.
What I want: A 4.5" lift that rides BETTER than stock, mainly on the road, with some roads being washboarded gravel. I will sled pull a few times per year, so it will have to handle some respectable hp. I want truck to sit slightly higher in rear than front.
I DON'T want: Front axle hop/shimmy, or any spring wrap. Don't want to spend a ton of money on it, as I am not going to Baja it.
Is there a kit out there that fits this bill? I am far from knowledgeable on suspension lifts. All I know is what I have read.Are there any shops in central Illinois that you guys think are reputable at doing this stuff? Im 30 minutes from Effingham, IL.
I'm also considering doing rods and studs in the near future. I don't want to worry about throwing a rod all of the time. I'm pretty sure I'll do a turbo kit at same time. Same thing, who does this work in my area? I figure you all have a handle on who is competent and who isn't...
Thanks
