lift kit question... sorry

i have been loking thru the site and also the web and have become more confused then ever..

trying to decide on a lift kit for my cruiser.. i know it must be a 4" kit but the brand and price is what is kiling me..

some 4" kits say you can only fit a 33" tire and others say 35" tire.

i noticed one kit on here.. Pinnacle Engineering Suspension Systems has anyone run this kit and is currently using it?

Not to be wise...
But go to the search, enter Pinnacle lift, and select 40tech.

A bunch of threads came up.

Good luck.

Downey and Hell Creek are a couple of other good options. Might pull a search on those also.

Sounds familiar

Yup sounds familiar ---went through that myself. I bought HFS but considered ALCAN, Hell Creek, OME, and many others.

I think any of the regularly used quality kits will serve your purpose really
