What do you guys think of this kit http://sdtrucksprings.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3831 . I am planning on lifting my Silverado this summer and wondering what you guys think. If you have suggestions for other lift kits let me know

bye bye warranty. But when you lift and put larger tires on, your going to loose a lot of preformance. I would reccommend adding some bolt ons to your budget, then a BB tune.

If it voids the warranty i am not to worried about it but, if there is a way i can lift and keep warranty I'd love to know.

That price is outrageous.... Pro Comp is decent...Looks into BDS, Pro Comp, Fabtech. Really depends what you're going for, size of tire, backspacing on wheel, etc etc. What exactly are you trying to do by lifting it. Look on GMFS for more suggestions on it.

And no, your warranty won't go away in full...look at my truck, I just got my tranny and rear end replaced under warranty.

Pro Comp measures a true 6. Without a coil spacer it would be unlikely run 37's without some serious rubbing...I'm not sure you're down to cut up the truck. The Fabtech measures a true 8" and with a coil spacer it clears 37's almost perfectly. This is if you want to stuff the truck. There's a reason I'm keeping the 37's for my new setup....I'm tired of fucking up the fenders.

35's will be fine with the Pro Comp...hell, 35's would be fine with Fabtech as well.

i thought you were selling it a couple days agoYeah i decided to keep it. I might put it up for sale and still drive it though, since I know it will sit a while because I want $30,000 for it and if someone offers ill probably sell it. Either way i might lift it keep it a year and then sell it. I dont know what i want lol.

it wont void your warranty completey.. it will only void the warranty on suspension ... whatever you change out will be voided but everything else will be covered
