    I will also note that a spacer lift will never go back on any truck I own. One of the studs in the passenger side spacer was completely broken and only held in place by rust, two others just broke off as I was un-bolting them with the air wrench.

    I think the front lift comes out to 2.75" and the total rear lift is 2.5 (before spring settling)
    This Kit Rocks!!

    The skyjacker kit handles great, It rides very smooth on the highway and the flex is awesome offroad.
