Default Would you buy a ram with a Rize lift kit on it?

I`m looking for a 2500/3500 mega cab , and I found a couple of them and they have 8" Rize lift kit on them. Would you buy a used truck with this lift kit on it? I`ve heard alot of people say Rise is going out of business. What would you do? Thanks for your input!!

I personally dont like buying things that are already lifted/modified a lot... Usually that means the person who owned it beat the crap out of it

Agreed, but if the price is ok, and the rest of the truck checks out, I'd consider it. Lotta posers out there that just want a tall truck. Buying used, you're always at the mercy of the previous owner, and people abuse stock trucks too.

Poser might not be the right word. "Profiler"? Whatever.

Thanks guys! I was think more in terms of a component of the lift braking or needing to be replaced , and if there was no longer a Rize lift or parts I would be forced into buying a whole new lift kit. Which that may or not ever happen. just a what if. My 02 f250 is heavily modified, I can`t say i have never ran it alittle hard, but for the like 99% of it`s life its been babied and never been off road. I was going to keep it for ever, r until me or the truck died. Again thanks for the input!!

for the most part if something was to break you could always put something else in there! I would about that!

Yeah, Rize is out of business. There customer service was awful anyway. I know their kits are quality though.
