Lift Kit Advice

Well i finally bought my 2010 F250 Lariat CC Short Bed about 2 or 3 months ago and have been saving up money to put a lift kit on it. Ive decided to go with either a 6 or an 8 inch lift kit with 22 inch rims n either 37-40 inch tires. My problem is ive been doing alot of research on lift kits, the more i look the more i get confused. There a number of kit rangining from 1000 to prices i cant touch. Im trying to stay under the 3,000 range because the tires/rims package will be expensive. I just ordered my Spartan tuner and just installed dual chrome stacks. Let me Know what you guys think. I look forward to your ideas

I'm pretty much going to be doing the same thing, also got a spartan coming.
As of right now I'm thinking of the 7" Icon for the front, custom 8" leaf springs for rear eliminating blocks and add a leaf crap. Then probly get OUO traction bars.
Is yours a srw or drw??

Not sure on the lift kits, but if you post in the main super duty/heavy duty forum you may get more info as it is a general forum. Or scroll down to the section on 4x4/off road/lifted.

Rize is sick but too expensive, icon is pretty solid. Not a big fan of pro comp they are cheap. I'm also thinking of bds and fabtech. Too many options!!

Yea, ive looked at the rize, ill have to check out icon...i saw one truck set up with the pro comp and it looked good but i dont know about the quality. Another blog of mine some guys didnt like the fabtech. Im tryn to stay in the middle range cause the more expensive they are the harder they are to install and more expensive to fix.
