    +1 on the Bilsteins. That’s probably going to be your best bet if your cap is a grand.

    I suggest you get better shocks and don't lift. Why are you lifting, anyway?

    Well, I think a 2 inch front and three inch rear lift looks great on this truck. I don't know if Trex needs the extra ground clearance or not but that is a plus when out in the desert for sure.

    Then your needle bearing might go and ruin your shaft
