OK, I've seen you post on this board many times, you should know what the deal is.
Option 1: Truckin Suspension for $1,200+
Nightmare to install.
Numerous issues to resolve.

Option 2: Body Lift for $200
Easy to install.
No driveline or suspension problem.

Thats your 2 options right now.

Corey

PS their is a Group Buy on the body lift but you better hurry, its been going on for over a month so the prices may not be the same anymore. Call RC and find out.

I have that stupid Suspension lift.. Don't get it.

It doesn't really cost $1,200 .... well it does but then you have to get it to work on your truck. I'm up around $3,000 right now and it still doesn't work :-\

A group buy is basically when someone asks a company if they will give them a good deal on parts if they buy in bulk. Some companies will and some won't. The purpose of a group buy is to, of course, get the best deal possible. With the current group buy on body lifts, you call the supplier, tell them your truck specs and tell them that you are part of the Dakota group buy and the supplier will give you the promised parts for the promised prices...as far as i can tell, it's a really good deal.

Only other option is to drive to Rancho and give them your truck and $3000+ and they will custom build a lift for you...but down time is over a month. But don't quote me on that, the Rancho tech i talked to told me i could do that...but there is no telling whether it's at all true.

You could have done that Knobbyman, but you had no idea that your lift would take so long...all you knew was there was a lift available for your truck and free installation, a deal you wouldn't have been able to beat if it was legitamite. If i had been in your shoes, i would have done the same thing.

Hind sight is 20/20...

Eh.. I might have been able to work out a Deal w/ Rancho if I told them I had X amount of people that wanted this lift as soon as they had it.
