6 Inch Suspension Question - RevTek, Pure Performance - 08 2500

Hey guys/gals,

I'm looking for any information/thoughts/feedback/do's and dont's on lifting my 08 QCSB 2500 4x4. I've been looking at lifts and have found two that I really like. One is the Pure Performance 6'' system and the other is the RevTek 6'' system. I know someone that has run a RevTek lift before going to an 8'' system but I have no knowledge at all of Pure Performance. Anyone running these on their trucks? If so, can you post some pics. Both of these lifts have specific coils listed for the 6.7 so I'm assuming that it's a full 6'' lift, not something thats going to sag to say 5.5 inches because of the engine weight. If anyone is running these can you please measure from the ground to the bottom of your fender as well? I'm planning to run 35's

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. I'm getting the lift itch and I want to do it right the first time.

I haven't ran one and i don't have any pics but my buddy has had the revtek on his 05 and the coils have sagged about 2.5 inches. now tires rub. Look at the superlift I know a lot of people running it and no problems.

I really like the looks and performance side of Carli and also of Kore but I want/need to be up higher for clearance over higher objects. I dont want to shell out the almost 3K for the Kore 5.5 inch kit either

I ran the Superlift before modifying it to go 8" Inches and I was very happy with it, Hnadled great, no rubbing, etc..

Here it is prior to going higher. and with 37s

There was one of their kits for 3K, i'm probably wrong about it being the 5.5 kit but thanks for pointing that out and not offering any actual information or help with my original question

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I meant no disrespect by my comment and I apologize if it came across in such a way. I have not forgotten where I am, I do not know what flaming is but I am assuming it's making someone feel bad, look bad, etc which is an action that I dont do for fun under any circumstances. In the future I will simply ignore comments that do not pertain to the thread topic as to not run into this issue again.

Once again, thanks for the comments and the pictures! Keep them coming!

My truck with 6" revtek and 37" Toto M/T's. Had it for about 1.5 years and has not sagged at all! Nice quality lift and it also moves the front axle about 1" forward to keep it out of the fender corners when turning.
