Today, I purchased a 6-inch lift kit by Pro Comp. It has a life time warranty. The salesman said he and his co-workers also have Pro Comp lift kits on their trucks and they have had no problems.
I have 6" Pro Comp's and really don't have any problems. 04 Chevy Silverado. Rough Country on 2011Chevy Silverado is only good if you install drop torsion cross member, this way you have more travel. Any and all kits should be installed with drop torsion cross member.
I bought a Pro comp stage 2 6" lift kit for my 2004 F 150 in 05 and 2020 some squirrels ate some wires on my truck so i called a roll back and he broke one of the coilovers inbetween my house and the shop. I called pro comp and my kit had been discontinued but they sent me all new coilovers and rear shocks for my truck no questions asked. Pro Comp For Life.
Yea I have a 09 Silverado z71 with a 7.5 inch lift and it does the job from what I’ve put it through I mean they wouldn’t sell these kits if they were always breaking but like I said it does the job and I only paid $950
I have had the 6 inch Pro Comp, Rough Country, and BDS on Ford F150,Ram 2500, Ram 1500 respectively. The BDS is hands down the best out of those in my personal opinion. I also had a Bilstein lift on my Ram Power Wagon and it was pretty good but I am not counting that.
I've got a 6" BDS with Fox 2.0 and remote reservoir front coil overs up front. 2012 F150 FX4 Supercrew Ecoboost. Could not be happier. Great ride. Sick looks.
Pro comp 6" radius lift kit on 22x14 375/45r22 2017 ford f250. Pull a 42 foot toy hauler quite often and it handles great. All bought through custom offsets besides the truck and trailer.haha
Still think my fab tech is one of the smoothest rides lift wise I’ve rode in had if for around 5 years never had a problem other than was doing something stupid and broke a back shock (totally my fault) called them told them what happened got a new one shipped free of charge
BDS!!!! I put the 7in on my 13 tundra. Have almost 100k miles and no issues. I love this thing. They have a lifetime warranty and are crazy heavy duty...
I think I'm completely turned off of the Rough Country lift. I tow with my truck, and I don't like the idea of "Blocks" lifting the back end. That will cause huge instability issues. BDS costs more, but looks like a much improved kit. Thanks for sharing.
I know I was considering getting a BDS kit to work with my ICON leveling kit, but I probably would have stuck with a 4 inch kit. If I keep my truck long term then I still might decide to go that route, but since I've been doing more baby hauling duty lately I decided now wasn't the time to make it harder to get into the truck.
I got a RC 3.5 installed on my 3rd gen Dodge and I love it. I have had no problems whatsoever. Plan to upgrade with shocks and loaded struts. About to install a 5 inch RC on my 2007 GMC Sierra next.
Have the 7-9 ss lift from mcgaughys on my 14 Sierra , truck rides great and handles great , craftsmanship is top notch , used there lowering kits on my other truck to , can’t go wrong with mcgaughys
2014 tundra with a 7” bds 37s get 14 mpg ride Quality is awesome you don’t bounce around feels like a stock suspension and I have no Fox shocks just Toyo open country RTs!

I have a 4in BDS on my GMC Sierra truck with the fox shocks in the rear. The ride quality is amazing. I rides better than my Grandmothers Lexus. Never driven/ been in a truck with a Mcgaughys though. Also the warranty on the BDS kits is amazing.
My husband’s got the 6” RC lift on his 2018 F-150 and I just bought the 6” BDS lift for my 2020 F-150 from your website. The ride quality’s not bad at all for the RC lift. Can’t wait to feel the difference between RC and BDS, though.
I plan on going 6" Rough Country.. I am on an entry level considering i havnt had a lifted truck but i have had a custom lifted Jeep. I need affordability and good ride quality and from what ive seen RC is the best option. I dont off road like i used to and just want the look and ride quality. I live in flood zones and want a higher ride and good look which is why im going for RC.
Everyone bashes RC yeah its cheap but you cant bash something you personally haven't tried. Ive got a 3.5in RC lift and I bent the upper a-arms before anything on the RC kit. My next kit will either be the RC 5in bracket kit or a fabtech 6in
I wanna know what is the smoothest daily driving lifted application for most ppl, 6in lift on what shocks or coilovers? 4in on what shocks or coilovers? Leveled on what shocks or coilovers? For newer model diesels.
I want a 6" lift. My truck is my daily driver. Not looking to go mudding or rock climbing. simply want a good bit more performance off the beaten path should I find my self there!
Being in SoCal all the toyo boys run with Icon and Kings but I feel that is more baha related. My family is from the Carolinas and everyone there is like you guys in Wisconsin they like a lifted truck. You guys are very knowledgeable and I enjoy your vids.
I would just do a rough country a lift is a lift it doesn't matter what it is. It's like comparing truck's everyone has a different taste in truck's. Some like Ford,Chevy,Dodge exc...
You should have did the best lift kit based on daily drivers then the weekend warrior and so forth. then new people would have an general idea on where to start
Ordered a 6" zone with fox shocks for my 14' f350 with 37s a while ago. So seems I went with a good choice for just casual work l, trail ridrs and just casual show
I had a 6" rough country lift on my 4th Gen ram, although I never had any mechanical issues with the kit in the 6 years I ran it after about the first year and a half the entire kit was completely rusted out and looked like COMPLETE shit on my nice ass clean truck.. After about 4 years the rust was so bad on the crossmember there was literally little chunks of metal that would just fall off in my driveway under the truck lol... The shocks were completely covered In rust to the point you couldn't even see the rough country name on them anymore.... Again, the kit lasted and held up the 6 years drove the truck and the stance was amazing, I got compliments on my truck all the time, but the shatty quality of the finish on the RC lift components is what will keep me from ever going with RC again! This time around on my new 5th Gen I will 10000% be spending the extra money on the BDS kit... Noway I'm saving a few bucks to drive a nice new truck around with terribly rusted out components exposed to ruin the look of the truck!
What about brands like Pro-Comp, FabTech, Super Lift, Tough Country, Rancho and last but not least RCD, I have a 6" RCD on my 2003 4 door short bed Chevy 2500HD 4wd with a Durumax diesel and I'm running 37" tires on it, it looks good and rides good and even with my super aggressive 37"x12.50"R20 tires it tracks super straight, I've had stock trucks that don't track as straight, not to mention I've only had my truck for 3 years and it came with the 6" RCD lift on it so who knows how long it's been on there and still it's in great working order! Of course I know you guys can't list all brands of lifts but besides Rough Country it seems like you stuck to expensive brands so of course they are good but whats a good affordable brand for us regular Joe's who can't afford to spend a fortune you know.
I also have an RCD 6" on my 2003 Chevy 2500HD 4wd with a Durumax diesel and am running 37" tires with it and it's an awesome lift, i looks great, rides great and the steering geometry seems to be really high end since I can let go of the wheel and even with my very big very aggressive tires my truck still drive straight as arrow, I've had stock trucks that don't track that straight.
Because Pro Comp isn't even on RC's quality level yet. They can't even successfully package their products let alone make a kit that isn't missing something or fabricated incorrectly. I work for a dealer and all we are insured to install is Procomp lifts and they are absolute garbage. We probably install about a dozen 6" kits on Tundras and about 10 6" kits on Tacomas a month. Once our insurance policy is up we will be switching for a different brand because quite litteraly EVERY single kit we have done over the past few years (hundreds at the point) has had something missing, fabricated incorrectly, misboxed damaged etc.
Rough country is a great starter kit but the more you learn about ride quality and reliability you will find out that spending the extra money on a quality lift
I have a fabtech 6" with uniball upper control arms. It's on my 2014 Silverado 2500hd duramax. I'm replacing all joints in the front end this coming weekend. I don't know if they are great but my Chevy road great even with grapplers. My uniballs are in the worse shape. They are expensive to buy the replacement bearings. Order the kit without the new nut and save a hundred dollars a side. Part 14 instead of 15 last 2 digits.
@@Skinner32608 the coil overs are worth it. They add 1k to the price of lift. Stay away from factory shocks. They will snap with weight if tire and being over extended.
I had a 7 inch mcgaughs on a 08 tahoe and the ride quality wasn’t bad but wasn’t good either I did have there front struts and belstein rear shocks as well never had any problems with the kit but for the money the ride of a bds would have been worth it
6 inch lift from rough country is good. It just needs to come with new front wheel hubs and bearings because youll have to most of the time get new ones for the new knuckles that come with kit unless you have new non corroded hub and bearings. I recommend ordering some new ones because if you hub and bearings are corroded you will not be able to reuse an old hub. I think rough country should offer an option for new hub and bearings like they do with the different struts and shocks.
You all have helped me from making a expensive mistake yes the last company of course makes quality kits and you brought the question to my mind and I plan to hit the trails and dirt so now my build is still the same just changing up my parts list choices to even out a smoother ride its a truck not only for work but hiding and chasing dirt in the woods.
I have a 1997 K1500 single cab Z71 bone stock. Looking for 6” lift and the BDS is around $2500 and the RC $1000. That’s a big difference in a price! But is the quality that much of a difference. They’re both a drop down kit in the front and the rear is blocks and different nitrogen shocks. But a extra $1500 BDS lift kit is that much of a difference compared to a RC lift kit? I really can’t justify paying $1500 more for a BDS! If you are reading my comment ROUGH COUNTRY and BDS lift kit please contact me! I will do a install and ride quality videos on both lift kit brands!
I did the bds 7 with fox on my 13 tundra. Will pay the money and put bds on all my trucks. The quality is very heavy duty, the ride is crazy smooth, and it has a lifetime warranty
That literally didn't answer the original question, you just said the same thing as in your intro which was and I quote "depends in your purpose for the truck". If I was to be more specific and ask which lift is best for a $1200 budget on a daily driven 08 Silverado, which would you choose?
I have a 1995 Ford 150 I just want one to daily drive I don’t do anything off-roading just want a kit for looks. Will rough countries brake on me I’m fine with spending a little more I don’t want to drop unnecessary cash for a over engineered for off road
What about Fabtech? I own a 2010 Avalanche LTZ. It has auto ride. I was told by 4 wheel parts the only company that makes a 6" lift for my rig is Fabtech. I love my lift it looks clean and very sturdy. But its not cheap at 2500 bucks.
I have the 3 1/2 rought country lift on my silverado right now on 33's. Did the upgraded upper control arms and front diff drop as well as the new struts. Debating on upgrading to a 6 1/2.
If you want more bang for your budget go rough country . But if you want a smother ride I advise you to go with a different brand. Rough Country is like what they say try ride rough not smooth.
Just watched your video about about what is the best lift kit, I've just installed a 3.5 super lift on my 2015 Sierra 1500 and as far as the ease of installation and the price I really could not complain about it. I've seen rough country kits and the components seem of less quality than other companies,
Fabtech? Bulletproof? Skyjacker? Theres so many options out there. The bulletproof kits are really expensive but are supposed to be the best lift kit you can buy.
Hands down the BDS suspension will ride better you get what you pay for mine rides better than it did when it was stock that’s saying a lot ,turned my f150 into a Cadillac
You guys are awesome and super informative! It’s my first time lifting a truck and no decision has been easy but because of the info and gallery you’ve provided it’s been a gold mine of information👍🏼By the way I have 2019 Silverado LT and I’m going with a 6” BDS lift. Also getting Fuel Blitz rims 20” and 35 x 12.50 tires. Hoping the gallery info pays off and I get no rubbing or trimming.
Thanks for the love! Glad we were able to help you decide what works best and make sure that when you get all of that installed you add it to the gallery so we can see it!🤙🤙 customoffsets.com/add
why would you have rubbing issues with a 6 inch lift with just 35" tires? Lots of people run 35's on 4 inch lifts, hell I ran 34's on a leveling kit with no rubbing on my 2005 Ram.
I Have a 6 inch Rough Country Lift On a 2005 Silverado 2WD, In Reality It Looks Like Maybe a 4 Inch Lift. Not Sure If It’s Because It’s Rough Country Or Just The Truck.🤔🤔🤔 I’ve Seen Some One with a 2005 Truck With a 6 inch bds lift and it looks way higher but truck is also a HD🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
My 93 suburban that is now a shortbed truck needs a 6 inch lift and I need to choose between Superlift or zone....anyone advice?...and I want it to ride like a truck, not a Cadillac.
Take a look into our Superlift suspension kits! We are currently having a 10% off all Superlift kits as well for a limited time! www.customwheeloffset.com/store/suspension?&brand=SUPERLIFT
Well I have seen a lot or at least all yall videos. But I have one question. That really has not been answered yet by yall yet. An no I am not a old guy but what 6 in life can I get but keep my tires tucked in. As it would from Factory with I know we touched on it when he was talking about Rough Country history. I got a cat eye z71 four-wheel drive extended cab
I'm gonna be putting in a zone lift in my truck as soon as I can get rid of the garbage body lift that's in it now. Can't find anybody that has the body mount bolts. Dealership wants 1800 bucks.
Why do some lift kits come with spacers on the front axles is this a benefit factor to widen your wheel track is there some kits that don’t need them spacer
Today, I purchased a 6-inch lift kit by Pro Comp. It has a life time warranty. The salesman said he and his co-workers also have Pro Comp lift kits on their trucks and they have had no problems.
Sounds like good salesman lol
Of course they would say that…
How much

Steve Irnwitt right!! Lol 😂👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
He told you it is the Rough Country lift kit. And that is why a lot of people run it. It is an entery level lift kit.
The best I think is the BDS!

Bds or Mcgaughys for ride quality is all I’m asking
I have a 4in BDS on my GMC Sierra truck with the fox shocks in the rear. The ride quality is amazing. I rides better than my Grandmothers Lexus. Never driven/ been in a truck with a Mcgaughys though. Also the warranty on the BDS kits is amazing.
I just got a 4.5 inch BDS on my 18 tundra and it rides the exact same as they day I drove it off the lot. Definitely get the fox rear shock option.
I have the bds 7in with fox shocks on a 13 tundra. Amazing! Almost 100k on the lift. No issues :)
I like how NOBODY has yet to answer the question smh, i wanna know too
Pushin Chevy I just assumed they are roughly the same at this point
I think it depends mostly with you're shocks and spring rate , and then running more rim and less tire like 22s with low pro tires.
My husband’s got the 6” RC lift on his 2018 F-150 and I just bought the 6” BDS lift for my 2020 F-150 from your website. The ride quality’s not bad at all for the RC lift. Can’t wait to feel the difference between RC and BDS, though.

@@Skinner32608 the coil overs are worth it. They add 1k to the price of lift. Stay away from factory shocks. They will snap with weight if tire and being over extended.
I had a 7 inch mcgaughs on a 08 tahoe and the ride quality wasn’t bad but wasn’t good either I did have there front struts and belstein rear shocks as well never had any problems with the kit but for the money the ride of a bds would have been worth it
Do a video about fabtech!!!!!
I agree!
Got a 2001 s10 bass 3” lift kit with 2” body lift will be on 31 BFGoodrich mud tires
Sounds awesome! Make sure you add it to our gallery if you havent already!

6 inch lift from rough country is good. It just needs to come with new front wheel hubs and bearings because youll have to most of the time get new ones for the new knuckles that come with kit unless you have new non corroded hub and bearings. I recommend ordering some new ones because if you hub and bearings are corroded you will not be able to reuse an old hub. I think rough country should offer an option for new hub and bearings like they do with the different struts and shocks.
I like how you made it a point to mention Zones upper control arms lol. Zone makes good lift kits but their UCA are terrible
You all have helped me from making a expensive mistake yes the last company of course makes quality kits and you brought the question to my mind and I plan to hit the trails and dirt so now my build is still the same just changing up my parts list choices to even out a smoother ride its a truck not only for work but hiding and chasing dirt in the woods.
I have a 1997 K1500 single cab Z71 bone stock. Looking for 6” lift and the BDS is around $2500 and the RC $1000. That’s a big difference in a price! But is the quality that much of a difference. They’re both a drop down kit in the front and the rear is blocks and different nitrogen shocks. But a extra $1500 BDS lift kit is that much of a difference compared to a RC lift kit? I really can’t justify paying $1500 more for a BDS! If you are reading my comment ROUGH COUNTRY and BDS lift kit please contact me! I will do a install and ride quality videos on both lift kit brands!
When it comes to lift kits Suave, you really get what you pay for. The ride quality difference is well worth the investment, as well as warranty!
I did the bds 7 with fox on my 13 tundra. Will pay the money and put bds on all my trucks. The quality is very heavy duty, the ride is crazy smooth, and it has a lifetime warranty
Where is the video on that Silver Alumiduty in the background?? Bangin!
It's comin!
That literally didn't answer the original question, you just said the same thing as in your intro which was and I quote "depends in your purpose for the truck". If I was to be more specific and ask which lift is best for a $1200 budget on a daily driven 08 Silverado, which would you choose?
I have a 1995 Ford 150 I just want one to daily drive I don’t do anything off-roading just want a kit for looks. Will rough countries brake on me I’m fine with spending a little more I don’t want to drop unnecessary cash for a over engineered for off road
What about Fabtech? I own a 2010 Avalanche LTZ. It has auto ride. I was told by 4 wheel parts the only company that makes a 6" lift for my rig is Fabtech. I love my lift it looks clean and very sturdy. But its not cheap at 2500 bucks.
I have the 3 1/2 rought country lift on my silverado right now on 33's. Did the upgraded upper control arms and front diff drop as well as the new struts. Debating on upgrading to a 6 1/2.
You did a great job explaining that !!!!! The main thing is. It all depends you what you want and how much you want to pay
If you want more bang for your budget go rough country . But if you want a smother ride I advise you to go with a different brand. Rough Country is like what they say try ride rough not smooth.
0:29 my truck is a mix of all four applications 😂
Just watched your video about about what is the best lift kit, I've just installed a 3.5 super lift on my 2015 Sierra 1500 and as far as the ease of installation and the price I really could not complain about it. I've seen rough country kits and the components seem of less quality than other companies,
What inch wheels are u riding on ? I have a 15 Chevy high country 1500 but I want 30 inch rims what kit inch should I get
So what about pro comp
What do you think about the fabtech 6 inch with the dirt logic coilovers?
Great setup!
Fabtech? Bulletproof? Skyjacker? Theres so many options out there. The bulletproof kits are really expensive but are supposed to be the best lift kit you can buy.
We are currently not offering Bulletproof or Skyjacker kits, but we have heard good things about them!
Love my bds 6” kit on my 03 Chevy 2500 HD CCLB.
Best leveling Kit whether sold by custom offsets or not
I always had issues with lifted trucks. Not sure why but I had ball joint and ride issues.
I’m getting the 6” super lift with the bilstein shocks
I'm looking at the Zone 4 inch and Zone 6 inch. They're the same price. Sell me on which one I should go with?
Skyjacker is the way to go!
Can please recommend any shop in Utah to lift my truck whit zone offroad or BDS lift.
Best way is to ask locals where they recommend!
Hands down the BDS suspension will ride better you get what you pay for mine rides better than it did when it was stock that’s saying a lot ,turned my f150 into a Cadillac
I second that!
Lies , you mean to tell me my 04 tahoe will ride like a cadillac
Can you guys do an install video of the zone 6.5" strut replacement
I don't know much about it but I get a BDS lift kit 6 inch on my 2014 ram 37s 24×14
That’s a good choice! 🤘🏼
@@CustomOffsetsTV Thank you it was a gamble I did not know what I was buying it just looked cool lol
You guys are awesome and super informative! It’s my first time lifting a truck and no decision has been easy but because of the info and gallery you’ve provided it’s been a gold mine of information👍🏼By the way I have 2019 Silverado LT and I’m going with a 6” BDS lift. Also getting Fuel Blitz rims 20” and 35 x 12.50 tires. Hoping the gallery info pays off and I get no rubbing or trimming.
Thanks for the love! Glad we were able to help you decide what works best and make sure that when you get all of that installed you add it to the gallery so we can see it!🤙🤙

Custom Offsets Just added it guys -Summit White 2019 Silverado 👍🏼 I hope it helps others in making choices.
why would you have rubbing issues with a 6 inch lift with just 35" tires? Lots of people run 35's on 4 inch lifts, hell I ran 34's on a leveling kit with no rubbing on my 2005 Ram.
@@edleifer6719 My truck has a slight rub at full turn so rubbing can vary from vehicle to vehicle even with a 6 in lift and 35s.
Ya should do these kind of videos more. We obviously come to you guys for advice. Good of bad.
I Drive a 2018 RAM 2500, Carli 3” commuter 💪🏽
I Have a 6 inch Rough Country Lift On a 2005 Silverado 2WD, In Reality It Looks Like Maybe a 4 Inch Lift. Not Sure If It’s Because It’s Rough Country Or Just The Truck.🤔🤔🤔 I’ve Seen Some One with a 2005 Truck With a 6 inch bds lift and it looks way higher but truck is also a HD🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Went with a 9" Readylift on my Sierra denali and I love it!!
My 93 suburban that is now a shortbed truck needs a 6 inch lift and I need to choose between Superlift or zone....anyone advice?...and I want it to ride like a truck, not a Cadillac.
Take a look into our Superlift suspension kits! We are currently having a 10% off all Superlift kits as well for a limited time!

I would have to say BDS with Fox shocks
Well I have seen a lot or at least all yall videos. But I have one question. That really has not been answered yet by yall yet. An no I am not a old guy but what 6 in life can I get but keep my tires tucked in. As it would from Factory with I know we touched on it when he was talking about Rough Country history. I got a cat eye z71 four-wheel drive extended cab
Anybody got an opinion on the skyjacker lift for Ford F-150??
I'd run rough country if they had a fox Option.
Rough country with bilstein shocks= awesome ride
I'm gonna be putting in a zone lift in my truck as soon as I can get rid of the garbage body lift that's in it now. Can't find anybody that has the body mount bolts. Dealership wants 1800 bucks.
I know I’m late but Can we get more info on the lead installers Silverado set up (Banker) I think his name was. Love the look at 1:40 Thanks!
Why do some lift kits come with spacers on the front axles is this a benefit factor to widen your wheel track is there some kits that don’t need them spacer
All kits come with everything needed to install the lift and work like Factory. Some need the spacers due to the track width widening.
