Re: RCD 6inch suspension lift
I would go with the rcd or bds if it were me. rcd is a solid kit and comes with bilstein shocks and bds lifts come with an unbeatable warranty. Are you planing a body lift or anything with larger tires such as 37's or 38's? If u are maybe a full diff drop lift would be better for u such as procomp or dick cepek.
6 inch bds with 3 inch body 37's and a sf 14 bolt in the works.

Re: RCD 6inch suspension lift
I'm running the RCD on my 97 Tahoe LT and I think I'm having problems with it. Still trying to figure it out but when i got the truck the lower arms were rubbing on the bump stops but the upper arm was almost rubbing on the upper stop! I took the lower bump stops off and the truck takes bumps way better. I think it was bottoming out which in turn launched the truck. Much better now.

I know I've got the right spindles cause the front wheels poke out but it seems like I'm missing something. The truck drives nice though. Running 35's with 4" blocks in the back.
