    Greetings,

    I'm looking to get some feedback from those who have 2-3 years on their leveling or lift kits installed on the 2WD platform. I'd like to know a couple of things:

    1. What components did you use specifically, what was the end result ( for example 1" level, 2" lift, etc.) and what settings were used (for example, the setting on 5100's).

    2. Have you experienced any issues, such as drivetrain vibrations, accelerated wear of any components, odd handling characteristics, etc.

    Thanks!

    Opinions will vary OP. Base your decision on your needs. Light off-roading etc. Bilstein or eibach kits with 2” front and 1.5” AAL are great budget lifts. Everyday driver and weekend fun rigs is what you’ll have. Also you might need UCA’s at this point. I needed them at 2” of lift for a great alignment. As for vibration etc. I have none. Vibrations etc. will vary on truck. Every truck is different. IMO do some research. Also ride quality opinions will vary. E rated tires will change the way the truck feels on road also. I would t change a thing on my set up.
    Good luck OP
