    The 4" MT kit will give you 4" up front with the spindles and 2" in the back with the blocks. This basically gets the truck level, but you could be a little nose high depending on the condition of your leaf packs.

    There's a ball joint nut on the back side of the spindle. Loosen that but don't take it off all the way & tap the side of the spindle where the ball joint stud goes through & it should pop loose.

    So did you re gear ?

    And what's the specs on your bumper. Obviously hybrid but who made it? What winch are you running. Pretty much exact setup I want except I am leaning more towards full plate since we have so many deer here.

    No regear as of yet. Seems good for now. But when i can afford a locked i will regear then. Bumper is made by bruteforce Fab and the winch is a 10k super winch.

    Just out of curiosity here. I've seem a ton of hybrids all over and everyone seems to Love the look of them. Even stacey said she prefers it over the plate. If i were to buy a hybrid can it be turned into a plate later on if I decide I just don't like it? Or would it be me selling it and then buying a plate
