    I should note that these will make the truck ride a little stiffer though. As do most lifts.

    KPT,

    I've order those bilstein shocks and try out the 2 in spacer today and it looks and drives pretty good. 1 question is that I had to removes the sway bar and it seems that the front camber is very close to hitting the tire itself. Is this an issue that you had, that you had to remove the sway bar if you went with the 1.75 inche shock lift?

    Yeah those top-plate spacers you have will ride very good, because they don't compress the spring. They do do some damage that you can't feel, as I noted in my previous post.

    You shouldn't have to remove the sway bar. Also, you need to get an alignment any time you change the suspension geometry.

    KPT,

    I did have to remove the sway bar. Since the spring is press down and the spindle is not align correctly, I couldn't make it fit so I had them removed. But overall the lift was a smooth ride.
