Default Ranco Quick Lift

I wanted to level my 09 Silverado and instead of the leveling kit I was thinking about the Rancho Quick Lift, Is it worth the $400 + to buy?

i think you have a couple options for leveling....i have not personally tried rancho but that is a cool product,you could also try daystar and there leveling kit,or you could get some new torsion keys and raise the front,i assume your leaving the back stock?the product says 1-2.5 inches of lift i wonder if there are different height kits?the rancho kit also can be coupled with the my ride kit.....i personally like the way the rancho product looks(much nicer ride with coils then with the other options..

let us know what you do and take some before and after pics....

do you want to go up or down? if u want to go down get a kit for the back which is usually swapping leaf springs. if your going up, then you need a kit for the front. or like blazer said, new keys for your torsion bars which would be cheapest and probably easiest.

Default Ready Lift 66-3080

I also found the Ready Lift 66-3080 GM Strut Extention for $230 which does basicaly what I want for alot less, but they say alows you to run 32" tires. I wanted to go with 33" and was wondering if the 1.5" raise would be enough to do so?

just to play it safe i would opt for the strut extension if wanting to get the 33's under her! you coul dpossibly get the 33's under her with the 1.5 with some minor valance trimming(can barely notice it's been cut if done properly)are you staying with the stock size wheels 16 or 17's?

pro comp is having a sale on coil spacers....they might be right around the same with shipping though.
