Depends how you drive your car, and what you do with it. There are many different rates available - i would PM shane from suspnsion stuff and ask him, as he sells most brands.

If you post up more info on your car specs and what you plan on acheiving with the 6" lift, you'll probably get more usefull replies.

You did however leave yourself open to bogged's reply.... ;)

Best has to be the worst word ever used on this site.

Best what?
Best price?
Best lift?
Best colour?
Best flex?
Best weight carrying ability?
Best complete suspension kit or just the springs and buger all the other very important parts of doing a 6" suspension lift on a vehicle?
best coil or leaf springs?


etc etc

The more info you provide as in details of vehicle, desired outcome, uses, budget etc etc the beter replies you will get. or you can ask a completley vague question, get vague answers and then abuse people

then you should have just asked that.

I've used Dobbins and ARB in the 3" variety and both were very good quality and prices but they qwere more for touring and load carrying ability.

What are you wanting from a 6" lift?
