if you read carefully, you'll see that the price doesn't include shocks. once you figure in $$$ for shocks, you're pretty much at the same price as superlift, top gun customz, etc., so i would just go with the lift that gives you the best quality parts and ride. btw, superlift kits give you the choice to upgrade to bilstein 5100's for some extra $$$ and would definitely give you a better ride, as most kits come with pretty basic shocks.

A 3" from Thuren is gonna run you at least $3000 and up. I thought you could get the Superlift for like $1250. If I were going to do a tall lift again, I would go with either a Superlift or Revtek. The Revtek is supposed to be the closest to a factory ride.

The rockrunner links swivel which allow for adjustability and lots of flex. Bilsteins are pretty good on these trucks too. I'm running Don's steering too, just hope yours is adjustable enough.

I bought my 5.5 lift from tuff country and never had a problem with it, they sell a 6" lift for your year and its about 750$ without shocks tho.

1200 and i got 12", ive had skyjacker, fabtech, and tuff country. skyjacker add-a-leafs suck, not the height they say, shocks suck, the front fabtech springs way stiff ride, the tuff countrys brackets kinda goofy but there blocks work great except ive sheered the pins off the cast blocks!!!, there old swaybar bracket sucks cuz they make you cut your old mount off your axle, makes it a pain to go back to anything else and when your steering rubs the bracket, your screwed unless you know how to fab. there cups work good for up to 4" now they have the 6" springs which do ride pretty good. the top gunz springs i do like, just as soft as the new tuff countrys 6" also the TG 6" springs ride great. rockcrawler old front arms wear the pollys down fast thats why they went to there new jonny joints (super joints) that are rebuildable. every one is going to have a diff. opinion on this so im just stating what i have had on mine, installed on customers trucks and other people i talk to around the community.
