i have a great deal on a 6" lift for my 01 gmc but i have the longbed extended cab and cant find pics of any trucks with just the 6" lift and 35s or 33s. my plan was to lift it and put the stock hummer rim and tire combo on it. but im worried b/c i use the truck to plow and tow a lawn trailer that it will make it impractical to work with (turning radius) so any one with feed back and pics much appriciated. i have the truck leveled right now and like it but bigger is always better unless it interfers with making the $.

I have a crewcab 03 with a 6" RCD lift (short bed though) I'm running 315 75 16. I'll try to get some pics posted. not sure if this helps or not

I have an 05 crew cab long bed with a 6" on 35's, I know it's not the same body style but I figured a pic might help sway you.

Plowing with a 6" lift and 35s is not the greatest idea, either the plow won't sit right, or you'll have to lower the brackets and have one ugly ass plow bracket that hang low as hell and won't be as sturdy as it was before. And I doubt plowing with a 315 wide tire would be any fun at all with the traction on ice, and the wear and tear of plowing with that large of a tire.

Towing it's that big of a deal, just find the right size drop hitch.

thanks for the pics if any one else has anymore of the same set up please send them. by the way how bad is the turning radius on ur truck with the lift?

 

[mperry]

The turning radius is fine. Trimmed a little but not much and I don't rub at all.

thanks again for the pics and feed back. the kid im getting it from said he had no problem helping me put it in and if i like it i pay him if i dont i give it back thought that was a pretty good deal.

:rof Idk I love the look of a lift but definatly woulnt put them on a truck Im working with.


We have a customer that has a 04 f-350 with a 6-8in lift and lader racks. They need a ladder to get the ladders down :rof

After doing a couple sky jacker kits and recently doing a Procomp A arm drop kit. There is no comparison the procomp suspension is built for a beating and for a long time! Excellent product in my opinion and not changing the spindles is nice, turning radius remains stock and your wheels don't stick out a mile past the body the track width remains stock!

i would if i had the money but the only reason i even was thinking about it was b/c my buddy offered me the 6" lift with shocks for $500. still think i might throw it on and see if i can find the time
