Tuff Country 6" Kit

[Studio54]

I have a chance to get a used 6" Tuff Country kit and this one is before the one piece subframe design we all know about now.

Is this a good kit? Its a cheap kit but i dont really want to throw my money at a cheap used kit if its garbage. Has anyone heard anything bad about these kits? Ive only installed one piece crossmember/sub frame lifts so a 3 piece is new to me.

Any help would be appreciated.

it's a knuckle kit so it extends the track width. That can be a problem in some states(like here) where you need flares to cover any tire hanging out past the body.

At least I think it's a knuckle kit, I know th eones I saw in other posts were and the ones they list in jcwhitney I think it is.

it came off a 2500 6 lug. This should be able to be put on my 1500 correct?

Only if it has the 8.5" front diff (2500's had 9.5" and the mounting and therefore brackets were all different).

while this is true even if he gets a deep offset rim hes screwed i got a bracket lift and my tires didnt stick out until i got myh new rims
AS for the OP i havent heard good nor bad about tuff country , how much are you getting it for ?, i know RCX has a 6 inch kit for 999 (knuckle )i believe , its a good kit but i dont know what your budget is i paid 2300 for my 6.5 inch superlift (bracket style)

RCX is not a knuckle lift, it is drop brackets.
