    whats the the best 3 inch lift kit that i could get for 600 dollars? i know i can get spacers but im not sure if thats a good choice as far as ride quality go's. also this truck would be strictly for the road.

    5100s/Eibachs, Add A Leaf in the rear.

    You could go Old Man Emu in the front as well. Either will work, but the Billies are adjustable to a degree.
