Hey troublemaker, im selling the lift for $1000.00 obo plus shipping (insurance optional). All parts are warrantied against defects by manufacturer. We are located in chicago. By the way this is brand new. TruckinSuspension says it gets a full 5" of lift by way of a 1" drop coil with a billet adjuster(giving you a total of 5" for the front) and a axle flip kit to give you the 5" of lift in the back. And the new upper control arms allow for proper alignment. thanks

Someone dont know what their talkin about. Dont give this guy crap. Drop coil? There is no drop coil that gives lift. Drop coils DROP suspensions. Maybe a recloation system for the coil which basically spaces the coil from the frame. But not a drop coil. And adjusters?, like on ricers? Not cool for trail use. Too much ability to move. And a 3in coil/arm lift plus your so called 1 in drop coil. Do the math, 3+1=4? Even if your drop coil thing is somehow real, that dont give you 5 in. Show us a link or something.

OK, checked out the link. Saw coil spacers with adjustable option. Ok, but thats not a drop coil. So alls good. But have you confirmed that TS susp has the A arms to hold a 3in lift coil+1.5 spacer? Last time I talked to them the arm kit could relocate the 3 i lift, but anymore was over what th arms could adjust for. If they have made a new set of arms, then I guess your ok., but if they are just the old system they had for a year or so, then I doubt it will work. This addition of lift coils and spacers has been discussed alot here. And it too much for what products we could get up to a month or to ago. Havent checked in the last month or 2. Good Luck with it.

You don't want to buy TS parts. Their products have a bad reputation, especially if you ever plan to go offroad. It might be ok if it's a show truck and you trailer it around.

Hey Guys,
I understand what your saying but, I did talk to TS and they said the arms will work with this setup. These parts combined give an all around 5 inches of lift. I know what your'e saying about not using this lift for off roading but the point is that this is for a 2WD truck and it gives the lifted look and more ground clearance. This lift would be ok for the type of off roading that anyone would do in a 2WD truck. The only reason that I didn't put this lift on my truck is beacuse I traded it for a 4x4 specifically so I could do some more seriuos off roading. So if anyone wants a good 2WD 5" lift for less than any other 3" lift I have one that I would really like to sell. Thanks!

YOu can get a 3" lift kit for a 2wd for 700 bucks by Fabtech. Just pointing that out cause you said you were selling the 5" for less than what a 3" lift costs.

hey toomuch -
The fabtech 3" lift is sold for 600-700 dollars without shocks, and requires the billet adjuster for use with the stock tires. So you can pay 650 for the lift + about 200 for shocks + about 75-100 for the adjusters (which are special order) to get a 3" lift for $950 and have to buy new tires, OR YOU CAN GET MY 5" LIFT THAT WORKS WITH ALL TIRES FOR $900.00

One more thing - this is a good lift. It consists of pretty much all the same parts as other available lifts and the total package costs less. I don't see why some of you have a problem with it. If somedbody wants a lift more for looks than serious off roading why not this one?
