A friend of mine is wanting to raise his 97 tahoe 4 door up 6 inches and asked me what's the best way to go.I told him I wasn't sure but I could find out.I figured some of you guys could helpout.What's the best lift to use and how aggravating is it going to be to install?He wants to run some 35's on it,6 inches should be enough shouldn't it?Is it better to go all suspension or split it up?Thanks for any help fellas.

Go all suspension and with 6 you will clear 35's with ease. Best lift, i like tuff country but thats me. Stay away from Rough country and don't buy cheap lifts you get what you pay for.

Oh check out their warranty if you have any questions about quality. Extreme jumping is the only thing that I have ever seen break their product. I've had several of their lifts I currently am installing another.

I highly recommend SuperLift! I have a 6 inch Suspension Lift with 35 thornbirds!! My Tire's slightly Rub in Reverse but I guess that only means I need to go Bigger!!!!
