    No. I was referring to Nolas' truck.. when he bought it the suspension was sagging like a prisoners' pants in general population.

    Nola... I believe Daystar also makes an adjustable shackle kit for up to a 2.5" lift. Pair that with Bilsteins up front on the top clip and 880 or 881 coils and you're good to go. Since you work construction, I would go with the 881 coils with HD leafs from General Spring. 1200 in parts and about 300 in labor and you'll be happy.

    I don't mess with construction as much as I used to. Will I need new coils? I have the OE ones on the truck right now

    I bought the 880's. Bilsteins set at 1.25 lift. Rides like a Desert Truck. Love it.

    Matt. I never knew about that place up in Bridgeport. Just north of 380 where 114 and 380 intersect? Seems like there's a restaurant on the NW Corner at that intersection. I've always turned west toward the lake. Always wanted to try that restaurant with the rock haulers in the lot. It's got to be good home cookin'

    I'm not sure what restaurant you're talking about. I've only been out to Bridgeport once
