What is the best brand for a 2 inch lift kit, front and back? and wheres the best place to get it?

I helped a friend of mine put the 2" Hellbent Steel spacers on. They seem to be a high quality unit. Maybe look to Skyjacker for a completed front and back kit.

Running the skyjacker 4" w/almost zero problems. Seems I have to get under it every couple of months to tighten things...don't want those pesky bolts coming loose. The only thing lately is I've noticed a poping noise from the front pass side. Not sure if it's the tie rod ends or what? If anyone else has experienced this please chime in.

I think I will be going with Carli suspension.He is releasing a new system using Bilstein 7100 shocks and full leaf packs for the second Gens.I rode in a 3rd gen with those shocks and it was plush.

Mine was doing that when turning at low speed or when stopped. I had my girl get in the truck and turn the wheel back and forth slowly while I got under the front end. It turned out to be the track bar upper mounting bracket. The bolts had loosened a bit. I put my hand on the track bar as she turned the wheels, and I could feel the pop when it happened.

If you want a suspension that works go with Carli. If you just want to level the truck out for as little money as possible just use some coil spacers and new shocks. If you want to work on your suspension and replace broken bolts go with a Skyjunker kit. I speak from experience with Skyjunker, I've had three broken bolts on steering drop brackets. All three breaks happened at low speed so I was able to stop but had they happened at freeway speed things would have been ugly. Eric
