Is there ever going to be a lift kit taller than the 1.5 levels from woolworth or rough country? I really was looking at somewhere between 2.5 and 3 inch of lift so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

All of the kits right now are small spacers, they're not really made for huge lift numbers. I imagine we'll see some real suspension components come out within the next year or so - but the cost will be significant compared to the cheaper small ones.

I don't see why a 3 inch lift is undoable, but there will be a lot more component replacement than in a typical mid-sized truck lift (which is usually blocks and a new upper control arm - I don't think the BS even has an upper control arm?)

There is a BL at SEMA with what Ford says is a 2” lift. I assume that would be 2” over the stock BL so that’s 3” over a BB.

Someone on this board had an Eibach lift that used springs, I believe he let Eibach use his BS to develope the lift. I haven't seen any recent posts about it.
I also just checked the Eibach site and they don't currently list a BS lift.

Hi everybody. I have a BS Badlands, and I would like to lift it just 1 -1.5 inches. Which is the best lift I could get? Why? Every manufacturer claims his/her are the best... thanks for your help.

Start here, then come back if you have specific questions.

Why are we lifting subcompact, unibodied, FWD based, subcompact “SUV’s”? Aka CARS beyond an inch or so. small lift are ok but how high until, uh, silly?

As a BSBL owner….serious question.

Flatout suspension has a taller lift.
Their GR series suspension is adjustable from 1.5 to 3.0 inches. There are some posts on this board from someone that has the kit installed
