Many people say that along with Donahoe, Rize is one of the top suspension companies out there. Marty (Username: Overkill) at Truck Toyz has done lots of installs with Rize. He would be the one to talk to.

RIZE makes very nice products.

I'd put them #2 on the list of suspensions (with Donahoe Racing 4-link being #1).

I have the 5.5" RIZE lift on my 05 F250 and am very happy with it. I now wish I would have went with the 4 link setup do to the obnoxiously over sized and tacky looking factory radius arms. Did the install myself and was easier than I expected.

Sounds like Ill go with the Rize 6" 4 link system, with either fox 2.0 ressi shocks or one of Bilstein ressi shocks. I would like the traction bars as well, but just too rich for my blood right now.

both the rize and DR suspensions are the best quality parts and can handle pretty much anything you can throw at it. they put all the other kits to shame.

Gale Banks uses DR suspensions on his Baja SD, Looks like he beat the crap out of it. And it holds up, plus Banks could afford any suspension he wanted, but buys the DR. Looks good to me.

The kit that gale banks uses, is that a kit that DR sells or did they custom make it for him?

That's DR's race truck.......it has Banks products on it, but DR OWNS IT and races it.


As for the suspension....some parts are the same as the off the shelf stuff, some are custom.

They have tons of pics of it and it's build on their site:

It still has a decent amount of Ford parts on it.
