    Okay thanks

    I've notice with pictures that the lift Would be my ideal lift but I notice there is a little slant in the front of the truck is this acurate or just my imagination ??

    1 inch isnt a big deal. You really want to cut up your crossmember for 1 extra inch?

    Or get 3'' so you dont have to cut up a new truck. Then if you still need to compensate, get some 35s or somethin.
