Anybody out there lifted a new Chevy Tahoe yet?? If so, how much lift and who's kit?? How do you like it?? Right now we're looking at an RCD or Fabtech 6" kit.

My buddy just put the Fab 6 on his with 35s. Looks really nice and rides very smooth. I personally like 'em higher though. I may look into better sway bars though. Feels slightly top heavy around corners, not bad though.

Got to look at a new one lifted the other day. It had a 6" RCD lift and 315's (35"). It looked bad-ass except that the front corner of the bumper(air dam, already trimmed) was extremely close to the tire and will hit if the wheels are turned at all and a small bump is run over. I sure like the looks of the RCD kit though, looks really durable and has lots of parts! I think we'll be going with the 305's (33") and that will look just fine and have the clearance. Have to get the Hypertech programmer also, sounds like a necessity. Have to save up for a few months, then of to the shop for momma's car!!
