    Fabtech 3" adjustable coil-over system, Alcan 8-leaf spring pack, Fabtech 3" body lift.
    I don't have a problem with mine and it holds up to the abuse I put my truck in during hunting season. It's also cheaper to put a 3" adjustable coilover system susp lift with a 3" body lift on it rather than getting a 6" suspension lift. It also makes working on the truck easier. I don't care what anyone says about a bodylift..... I love mine along with my fabtech 3" suspension lift. Just my opinion.

    I have one on mine. Of course, I didn't install it, it came with the truck. But I haven't had any trouble with it whatsoever.
