6" lift kit should work, but is you're dad even going to let you lift the truck? You have to realize lifting a Pickup or SUV properly is not a cheap endeavor if you do it safely, and professionally.

What is the purpose of a crankcase vent line that is attached to the airintake on a 2009 GMC sierra 1500 ?
and also why isnt there one on a cold air intake kit from K&N

It allows the engine to suck the polluted air out of the crankcase, and burn it in the engine. There's usually a valve in the line, so the system is off until the engine is reving faster then idle.

Reputation and brand loyalty are everything in the now-crowded field of full-size trucks.

And although nearly all the big pickups might look alike to those not interested in them, the subtle styling differences play a big role in their appeal.

The Sierra and its Chevrolet sibling, the Silverado, have a softer appearance, while the latest F-150 aims to be more imposing than ever.

The also new-for-2009 Dodge Ram still looks big and imposing on the outside but gets a very different, more passenger-friendly interior with lots of high-tech options.

Although the Ram’s handling has been greatly improved, the GM trucks are still arguably the favorite from a dynamic standpoint, with a great compromise between ride, handling, and load capability.

The Tundra continues to stand out for its interior and emphasis on safety, but it’s available in fewer configurations than the others and, from TheCarConnection.com’s experience, more cumbersome to drive.

Fuel economy remains one of the most compelling reasons to opt for the Sierra 1500 rather than its Ford, Dodge, or Toyota rivals; thanks to Active Fuel Management, the big GM V-8s get better mpg than the others.
