Re: 8" k10 lift

I have been looking at 2.5" kits and am leaning towards skyjacker. Here is their 8" kit- http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

Re: 8" k10 lift

What are you going to use the truck for rocks trial mud mall? For an 8 in lift I would do the 52in spring frnt convertion with 4in springs in the front that will give you 8in but a better ride then an 8in spring for the back schackle flip and 4in springs. it will cost more this way but theride should be alot better and you will have more flex on the trials. I have a shy jacker 6in lift on the burb it rides nice I hade a 6in BDS on the blazer and it was a softer ride and they flexed beter then the sky jackers.

Re: 8" k10 lift

Then the sky jacker kit may be your best bet it will be the cheaper route for a complete kit. But you may want to call Steave over at ORD offroad design to see how much a set of BDS springs would cost you.
