    Kase is it? I would suggest a different kit (different UCAs rather) the UCAs alone are $1,100.. And there are ones just as good, if not better, for 1/2 the price.

    Dude i dont wanna shit on your choice but for 3 grand you could get fox or king remote resi's front and rear Total chaos UCA's for like 2200ish then either spend the extra 5 or 600 on a new leaf pack, or just the 180is and get the ICON 3 leaf AAL...... Those icons are even remote resi's :eek: your paying for a "big" name and some fancy looking uca's on that icon kit IMHO

    (fox or kings w/remote resi's will be my next suspension :D)

    And he's right ^ there's no rear lift, I wouldn't spend all that dough and use a $75 AAL.. I would fork over for a leaf pack, just my $0.02 ;)

    Way better kit IMO ^ and with the money you saved you could get a better rear lift, you could also call DSM and they can prob beat that price.

    Almost the same kit, but still no remote resi's, look at all the LT guys they all run RR stuff more oil= cooler oil temp and if you wanna be jumping your truck that stuff helps not break your suspension...

    Fox King and ICON are all great first off, im just saying for the $$$ your throwing down that first kit is a rip off.....

    Remote resi front and rear shocks Total Chaos UCA's and allpro or dakar leaf pack is still under or close to the first link you posted and its a better choice IMO....

    No the icon kit is still an option lol, im just saying you mentioned before you want to jump your truck and stuff. The main thing im trying to get at is for 3 grand i want you to get the best kit you can, not get one your getting screwed on... Have you called the guys at DSM adn talked to them?
