Good morning All, I am looking for recommendations on a 3" lift kit for my 2003 D2. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

 

Quick search will reveal this has been covered frequently. Simple answer is full RTE kit. buy once and cry once.

 

Yup. RTE

 

Nothing wrong with the Terrafirma 2” MD lift with 1” spacer. Has a nice ride on the freeway and around town and is the height truck should have been from the factory….in my opinion.
I had the HD lift previously and it was way too harsh for my liking.

Having said that I just received my order from RTE ! Still waiting for the dampers.
Took about 3 months for the build and is more expensive.

 

Terra firma also just makes a 3" kit. No need to stack spacers on a 2". Very commonly used, very good kit.

I generally agree with the buy once cry once mentality, but unless you're going beyond 3" the full RTE kit with radius arms and all is unneccesary.

I do think RTE is the "best" kit out there, though theres nothing wrong with the TF kit and it is considerably cheaper and less work.

 

Thank you 04disco2va, RTE is the way.

 

Thank you Alex M, I will be going RTE. I appreciate the help. Also going to checking your Mod write ups. Thank you Hector M

 

Going RTE the only caveat right now is you will be waiting (like everyone else) for the bilstien shocks. Simon will tell you that those lead times are nuts and you will probably need a stop gap pending the lead on the kit itself.

 

Go Fox!
