6" Fabtech Lift

[Tylus]

now that is a sexy setup unlike the other lifted 2015 I just saw here

I wonder what the 4" looks like? the 6" is just on the verge of being too tall IMO

Yes, just going off of what I was told by Fabtech

It's only like $150 to lengthen a drive shaft it's easy !

Yup! OP, many 6" kits require a new driveline. We're talking chump change when it comes to overall cost of the kit.

I'd also be interested in seeing a 4'' lift. The six might just be a bit too tall for my taste.

Agreed, or at least a major grille guard up front to hide it a bit.

Dig that lift on your Tahoe! What size is that and who makes it if you don't mind me asking?

A new driveline isn't that much. Find a local shop or ask around on some forums. I had a huge aluminum 1 piece made for a 4 door long bed Dodge with a 12" lift and it was only $700 installed. Plus you get away from a two piece driveline (not sure if the XL has one or not) and piece of mind that comes with having quality u joints in...google image search "dropped driveline lifted truck" and you'll see what I mean.

custom rear driveline as in a longer driveshaft? I can't imagine there being too much "customizing" on the 2015.

Maybe their kits have changed because the 6" Fabtech recently installed on my XL needed no driveline modifications - front or rear. They did mention if you have vibration in 4x4, you may need to purchase a new front driveline with a double cardan cv joint. Under normal driving, mine doesn't vibrate in auto or 4x4. It does have a minor vibration in 4x4 high if I get on it real hard.

Cheers,

you don't have to lengthen for the cognito lift either
