For what you are going to be paying for the kelderman lift, you could have a custom lift done by Thuren and have a performance lift. Or you could get the new RIZE kit, or Rock Krawler Kit. check out http://www.topguncustomz.com/ they have a pretty good selection of dodge lift kits. (I have the Pro-Comp lift and would do it diffrently if i was doing it all over again.) Make sure you do some research first before wasting money for a airbag kit that is going to be just for show. JMO either way good luck with your purchase.

I'm not going to do any four wheeling just street driving,thought the air lift would ride good on the street.3250.00 for the front lift kit and the back is easy to lift.Rize is 2500.00 and and rock krawler around same price with cutting and welding.For 750.00 more I think I would get a much better ride and flexability of the air lift to lower or rize.Would like to get it up around 9' lift.I really like cbrahs I think I spelled it right he has a 6' lift 3" body lift on a mega and looks really sweet.

Not really Don's area. He's a go-fast guy. He may have opinions on the quality of a particular kit though.

Hey, I'm pretty new to this truck scene and not trying to thread hijack here, but this topguncustom lift that you refer to here ( http://www.marketworks.com/storefron...103&i=43363096 ) is that the entire kit that you would need to add the 6" lift???? I'm looking to lift mine and put 37's on to look like this . Would that kit do the trick?

I don't like the angle of the arms on that kit.

Yeah the angles on the CA’s pretty much suck once you get past 4”.

Ry,
been busier than a 1 legged man in a solo butt kicking contest. I want the Kelderman kit BAD! I also want more than 6 inches (hence the bodylift). Would love a Kelderman. Email me, I have a contact that is a dealer out of Florida for Kelderman that might be able to get you a better price.

Chris
