    I'd really say Billy's all around. Can't beat it for that cheap, especially compared to a spacer kit. You'll like them a WHOLE lot better than the spacer kit.

    No need for name calling. Let's keep it civil.

    Spacers make the ride like riding in a golf cart. You'll feel every little rut, small pothole, and bump in the road.

    There is a very minimal visual difference between the total 3'' and the 2.5'' Billy's. If you absolutely have to have the full 3'', you could get Billy's all around, and set the fronts at .85'', and then get some OME 885 springs to go along with the Billy's. That would be your best bet.

    Right on. You took a ribbing and came out cool about it. :thumbsup:

    The above question is really what you needed at the outset of this thread. "I wanna lift my truck 3" and even out the back. Mostly on-road with the occasional mud hole thrown in for fun. Any suggestions?"

    Now we can yell at you about using the Search feature. ;)

    Used Billsteins and an add-a-leaf will be your best bet for performance, ride quality, and cost. Also consider Old Man Emu's product line. Lots of respoected folks around here are very happy with them.

    :laugh:
