Installing a lift kit on your truck or 4x4 is one of the best ways to ultimately transform the look and performance of your vehicle. Take a look below to see some examples as well as some different lift and leveling options. It is also a great time to add wheels and tires to your vehicle.
Before & After's
2021 GMC Sierra 2500 AT4: 3.5" Front & 2" Rear Lift, 35" Tires, 20" Wheels
2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser: 3" Front & 2" Rear Lift, 33" Tires, 17" Wheels
Why Lift or Level Your Vehicle
Appearance: Installing a lift kit or leveling kit is one of the best ways to give your vehicle a more prominent stance
Performance: Contrary to popular belief, lifting or leveling your vehicle is a great opportunity to build upon its suspension performance expanding your vehicle's capability and improving overall ride quality, of course this all depends on the type of kit you go with
Room For Larger Wheel & Tires: Along with giving your vehicle a more prominent stance, lifting and leveling also gives you the opportunity to fit a larger wheel and tire setup. Depending on the vehicle and lift system, you can fit up to 35" or 37" tires
Increased Ground Clearance: Lifting your vehicle and adding larger tires also gives you increased ground clearance, making it easier to go over different obstacles when offroad
Lift Kit & Leveling Kit Manufacturers
We can help you find the right kit that fits what you are looking for
ReadyLIFT SST Kits
Perfect for someone simply looking to lift or level their vehicle
If you are looking to simply lift or level your vehicle we recommend ReadyLIFT's SST kits. ReadyLIFT is a manufacturer of quality lift kits, leveling kits, and other suspension components for trucks, SUV's, and 4x4's.
Most SST kits use a strut spacer and sometimes a preload spacer to achieve the lift, and they also include other components to achieve proper suspension geometry
This kit will work to retain ride quality but will not necessarily build upon it
ReadyLIFT uses high quality materials for their kits including heavy duty steel tubular control arms and CNC billet aluminum spacers
Overall a perfect option for someone on a budget looking to lift their truck using high quality components
Eibach Pro Truck Lift Systems
Great for anyone looking to level or complete a small lift (< 3″ of lift) while also getting a performance upgrade
Front: Eibach Pro Truck 2.0 Adjustable Coilovers
Rear: Eibach Pro Truck Shocks or Eibach Pro Truck Reservoir Shocks
The coilovers feature 2.0 shock body and racing winning ERO spring technology providing superior ride quality and control compared to stock
They are set to level out the vehicle straight out of the box, but they are fully adjustable with most kits being adjustable from .5"-2.5" of lift
You have the choice for the rear shocks, which is between the base Pro Truck shocks or the Pro Truck Reservoir shocks that will provide better dampening capability, translating to a better ride quality
The preset coilover height will work with stock upper control arms, though we do recommend aftermarket upper control arms, especially if you plan to adjust the coilovers to provide more lift
We overall like the Stage 2 Pro Truck Kit because it provides a big improvement over stock ride quality, and it gives you the option for adjustability if you ever want to change the lift height
Fabtech Dirt Logic Kits
Perfect for someone looking to get the ultimate performance upgrade with lifts ranging from leveling to 6″ lifts
3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma Dirt Logic 3" Kit
2019-2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Dirt Logic 3" Kit
The star of the show in Fabtech's Dirt Logic lift kits are their adjustable Dirt Logic coilover that feature a 2.5" stainless steel shock body
The large shock body and optional remote reservoir allows for better dampening and cooling capabilities, which translates into better ride quality
Their kits also comes with 2.25" Dirt Logic shocks for the rear for straight axle applications as well as upper control arms for IFS vehicles
The exceptional dampening these coilovers provide eats up the bumps, reduces body roll around corners, and overall makes the vehicle feel more planted on the ground giving you more control over it
These kits are expensive, but the way we see it is if you can spend under 10% of what your vehicle costs to ultimately transform the way it drives for years to come, we think it is totally worth it
JKS Manufacturing Jeep Lift Kits
Being that Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators have a front and rear straight axle, they require lift kits made up of different components when compared to most other trucks & 4x4's in its weight class, and we like JKS because they solely specialize in engineering and manufacturing kits for Jeeps
They have a wide variety of different lift systems ranging in size from 2" to 3.5" lifts that are tailored to specific vehicle applications
What is also great about their kits is they incorporate dual rate coil springs, which results in a softer riding spring rate when driving on the road, while still being able to take the force from bumps, potholes, rocks, and other obstacles
JKS is owned by Fox factory and because of this their kits come with the option to incorporate different shocks ranging from JKS's own J-Spec shocks all the way up to Fox's Remote Reservoir Series shocks, with the better shocks providing the better ride
Overall, we like JKS because they specialize in Jeep suspensions, use high quality parts and materials like their dual rate coil springs and Fox shocks to build upon ride quality, and they have many different variations of their kits to help ensure that you will find a kit that works with exactly what you are looking for
