    What is a good 6 inch lift to put on that will still kind of keep factor ride? I want bigger tires but don't want to spend money on new rims. My stock rims are 18". Can my stocks fit on a tire size of 285/70/18?

    stocks rims are 16 or 17" so no on the tire size. Read a bit and you'll learn.

    I know bds is adapting their lift and some have modified the ones for the 15 model to work. If you get full kit with coils and everything it will ride better than stock depending on tires you choose because you usually go to an e from a b or c. I called bds and I suspect we should see the modified lift for the 16 pretty soon. not sure about toy tech but their build 16 looks good. Not sure on lift size

    All 6" lifts will be drop brackets, so your factory suspension angles will remain the same = stock ride.
    No your factory wheels won't work with 285/70/18 cause that takes an 18" wheel... You either have a 16" or 17"

    First. What do you want to do with the truck? Are you going to hit the trails? Or is it a pavement princess? Drop kits aren't really the best setup for offroad.. Either way, you can do Icon's front and OME leaf pack rear for approx. 3" which should clear 285's depending on wheel choice/offset etc.. Then add a 1" body lift if necessary but I would skip the BL imo.. Just a thought.. J.
