    Body lift or AAL

    I'd go with the body lift and clean it up with gap guards. I have a buddy running your 2-3 with a 3 in body and it looks good. 1996 Chevrolet Silverado 6.5" DC ST 1, 35" MT mud terrains, 17" MT Sidebiters, BB tune, AEM Brute Force intake, true duels.

    RCX Anyone?

    Yeah buying the 4 inch would probably be something you regret in the future. I'm running the DC kit and I don't have any complaints, especially for the price. 35s with almost no abnormal cv angles. http://scottsmotorsportsperformance.com/Dlifts.html 1996 Chevrolet Silverado 6.5" DC ST 1...

    Cognito Upgrades

    Does anyone have experience with the current Cognito offerings. In particular, the idler pivot assemblies and the pitman and idler arm support assemblies. Are they worth the money? Link to parts: http://www.cognitomotorsports.com/products/ 1996 Chevrolet Silverado 6.5" DC ST 1, 35" MT mud...

    If your really interested in that kit contacting Peterson's may be worthwhile.

    Crate Engine

    Its been a while since I posted on this. The motor is at 175k now but still running pretty solid. Tranny, not so solid I believe. I'm thinking my best option is to rebuild and stroke whenever it does go out. Now, I consider myself a novice mechanic (give or take), how hard is it to rebuild the...

    My understanding is long tube is preferred over shorty right?

    Suspension Upgrade

    Is the Jeep shaft worth buying new. I found this on quadratec is seems to be all one would need for the swap. http://www.quadratec.com/products/56113_04.htm

    Suspension Upgrade

    Does anyone have experience with installing the jeep shaft with the DC lift. Any complications?

    What's Next

    I was thinking headers as well since I don't really want to tear into the engine until it's ready to go. Also, I'm wary of forced induction or nitrous since the miles are getting high. How hard is the header install for a novice mechanic?

    Suspension Upgrade

    I'm leaning towards the Bilsteins they look better too. It's been a while since I've been active on here apparently the jeep steering shaft is a trend now. Is that worth the trouble my steering could definitely use some help at his point.

    which kit

    it looks beefy enough but I don't know of anyone who has installed that kit so I can't speak for the quality of the rest of the kit.

    What's Next

    My current setup is a 96 k1500 with 175k miles. I have already installed dual exhaust, air intake, and have had it tuned by . I am looking for suggestions for the next performance enhancer since the government so kindly decided to return some of my hard earned money recently.

    OLD 6" fabtech lifts

    Honestly, I wouldn't go with a used kit especially since the one in question has had the hell beat out of it like you said. If your only going to run 33 in tires I would look into getting a 3 in body lift and gap guards to tidy it all up.

    which kit

    I have researched this some on my own although I can't give you any solid suggestions from experience I know Peterson's four wheel and offroad has looked at some of the kits and compared them. Check some of these articles they may be able to clarify for you...

    Suspension Upgrade

    Hello all, I have a 96 k1500 with the DC 6.5 in stage 1 lift. I am looking to upgrade my shocks very soon and was wondering if it would be worth while to install a dual shock kit for the front while i'm at it. Currently I am running the standard DC single shocks up front and the basic skyjacker...

    Possible Engine Swap

    yeah but its looking like im going to be keeping for a while so im just wondering is it worth spending the extra $ to put it in

    Possible Engine Swap

    i have no doubts about that but naturally i would rebuild it before putting in the truck so after all the work it would be a rebuilt 496 BB with the updated trans vs a 350 stock with 170k miles on it
