I'm about to start a suspension upgrade for my 99 suburban and wanted to get some thoughts before I do. I've researched the kits from $900 to $5k and not sure what I need....
My goal is a solid offroad performer but I don't think I need the 4.5" wider stance or 14" of travel that I get from the high end long travel kits from Dixon and others like it. I'm thinking 4" lift, with a great set of shocks to go with it - maybe something like the rough country kit? Generally speaking I like to drive rutty, sometimes silty Baja roads. Ideally I want to build a truck that will handle those dry, rutty conditions at speed. So I don't need the hardcore solid axle swap but I'd like to get the right kit for my typical road conditions. Anyone have any comments on which direction I should be going?
I'll be sure to start a project thread when I get rolling. Thanks for the input.
