I'm in the process of putting on a BDS lift kit for my truck, 6.5" lift, non torsion bar drop, high clearance kit. And lifetime warranty and parts, costed me $1820 then $80 for shipping.

Do you have 1500 or 2500? With a six inch lift on a 1500 you can fit 35's. Not sure with a 2500. Also X2 on the BDS kit...I love mine and no problems so far.

its a 2500.

Sorry, cant help you with that, hopefully someone with a 2500 will chime in.

I'm not sure but i'd bet you'd be fine with 36's maybe even 38's

Rancho make a lift for your truck part # RS6543/B. They advertise it as a 4inch lift, but its a six inch. There lawyers wont let them advertise anything over 4inchs. We installed many of those kits and they fit great and work. The lower subframe is welded at the factory and the upper control arm mounts are gusseted. Pro Comp also makes a kit for your but i would stay away from it. We had alot of issues with Pro Comp lift kits. There wheels are fine, but there lifts leave alot to be desired. I had Pro Comp no my Suburban and took it off and installed a Rancho kit.
