    Kings might be unnecessary. The most off-roading I’ve done is the gravel parking lot at my school. The lot is a disaster and people are screwing their sedans up because the ruts are a little big lol

    If you’re just looking for a modest lift definitely think about the Bilstein 5100s. I got those in front and rear, set at 1.55 inch lift in front and 1 inch blocks in rear, for a total of $850 including installation. It’s nothing fancy and as you go up the notches in front the ride gets a bit stiffer, but it’ll achieve the lifted look you’re going for. The truck should sit a bit higher in the rear as others have said. If you lift the front 1.5 to 2 inches and nothing in the back the front will be higher (bro lean). Definitely know what you want to do in both front and rear ahead of time so you don’t have to pay extra for 2 installs. Just my 2 cents.

    What are they quoting for installation? I'm in Huntersville, bring it over and we can knock it out in a few hours.

    Update, was Giardia. Probably from going for a swim when she shouldn't have in that nasty water retention pond.

    $700 later she has soft serve instead of chocolate milk.

    Somewhere around $500. It might be less because I'm no longer having the block installed and that will usually take time to install. This kit was ordered through RimzOne and I already made a $200 deposit with them

    that's GB pricing IIRC, for non-clickers.

    I'm currently deciding between King, FOX, or Radflo for my GX when the time comes.
