    Fully Disagree, clearly you haven't been in a vehicle with a 6" drop bracket and gone mudding. Quit with your negative garbage and GTFO of this thread.

    That's funny, because my front bumper is a snow plow too, i guess i shouldn't be running that when going in snow either.......come to think of it, my CV axles also pushed snow, got to get rid of them too

    You can make a solid DB setup:rolleyes:, just like everyones mid travel.
    no cv angles and rides better than a 3" liff

    IF you want a Drop Bracket - I believe the Pro-Comp is more favorable compared to the Fab tech for your truck. But both are worthy lifts.
    Google their factory sites and you can check out your options there.
    http://www.procompusa.com/
    http://www.fabtechmotorsports.com/
    If you do Decide to go with a drop bracket lift, they come in kits with everything you need.
    Things you may want to consider:

    Re-Gearing is something you may want to do, help replace the lost power with the size of the oversize tired. Gearing prices and products can also be found in out vendor section or once again google.
