Anyone have pics of a 2000-2006 tahoe with 33s? Im inyerested in a 4in lift but i cant find a low priced kit like the 6in lifts, i was looking at rough country there 6in lift in just over 1000$ but no 4in? I dont want to go with 35s due to lower performance and fuel economy. So im thinking of just getting the 6in with 33s.

Just buy a 6" lift and leave it decranked. 6" lifts are 4" lifts with flat angles. The other 2" comes from cranking the t bars

Not completely true.

My lift is a true 6” suspention lift.
Yes some are 4” and require you to crank but not all.

My 6” trailmaster is a true 6” bolt hole to bolt hole center on my cross member drop.

I do have ford keys also as I wanted a little more articulation. In addition I have the 7” skyJacker HD rear springs. So I am a leveled 7” lift now.

Do you know if the 6in rouch country will crank down to a 4in? Or is it not possible?

The answer is yes and no. Your front can be lowered with the keys but your rear will be higher unless you do different springs. So it is all about what you would like to spend and effort needed. If you are dead set on 33s then sure. But personally I feel like you are wasting money buying a 6”. I mean plenty of people are rolling ford keys and a rear spacer with 33s. Now they are STUFFED and do not have the articulation.x


Without knowing your intended use it is hard to make an informed recommendation.

Where I wanted ground clearance and articulation for when I am off the grid which is basically every other month.
