Cepek, Pro Comp & Tuff Country Smaller Lifts

I'm new here and want to get some opinions so I'm asking the same question here that I did on another message board.

I've been researching lifts for a few weeks and checking out other people's trucks with different setups. I'm looking at 2-3" lifts because I'm not a big fan of how much room there is between 33's and most 4" lifts out there. And, from what I understand, most lifts sit an inch or so higher than advertised (I know there's a few variables involved with this but as a general observation).

Has anyone here installed a Cepek or Pro Comp 2.5" or a Tuff Country 3" lift on a 1985 K10 w/ a small block (or similar) and care to chime in on how it sits or how it looks?

Thanks in advance-

I ran a 3" on a 86 Blazer and it was great. Cleared the 33's really well. I have had really good luck with Tuff Country.

Re: Cepek, Pro Comp & Tuff Country Smaller Lifts

This is the stance I'm ultimately going for. The guy says he has a 2.5" lift on the front and 3" out back but he doesn't say what type of lift and whether or not he used blocks or springs.

Thanks for the reply Mudder, it's nice to know someone out there used something smaller than a 4" and was happy with it.
