I have an 09 LT2/5.3/6speed/4X4 and I want to put 6" to 9" of lift, but I have a family and the money would not allow. Also it would be hard for the wife to get the toddler in.

So I am thinking about a spacer kit with rancho quick lift front and new rear.

I was thinking about this spacer,

I would go with the CCM but want more this one gives maybe 3.5f/2.5r.

I also want to run some XD series wheels 18" and 33/12.50/18 nitto mud grappler.

Questions

What does the quick lift give you by itself?

Also do you think with all that I want could I do 33" without rub?
(i guess it really does not matter I do not mind trimming but still want to know)


As you can see in one pic I am not afraid to get dirty!!

I think the quick lift gives you around 2" max, but not 100% on that. I think if you want to run 33s then the CCM kit would be enough.

Rough Country makes a 3.5" lift kit, but some people are on the fence with the design of the kit and the longevity of the suspension bushings and ball joints. They have re-designed the kit and supposedly took care of the issue with ball joints and alignment issues.

If you search through this part of the forum, i think there are a few good threads that show off CCM kits as well as a couple with the rough country.

4" bds

I put a 4" BDS lift on my 07 Yukon, it came out perfect and does not sit to high so it would be perfect with kids. I bought it off ebay and spend 1695.00 with free shipping. I have had it for about 3 months and i love it. I have it posted in my other thread on page 2 if you wanna check it out.

I would be leery of this big of a lift with just spacers as it may give you some bad angles on your shafts.
