    mick-dude its all good bro.. If you want to call 'ol hank up and tell him yourself you are more than welcome- i will in no way get involved.. I dont manufacture the kits nor do I support them.. everyone is entitled to their opinion-joy of forums.. :D

    And I dont believe anyone said it would be the same as stock- that would be silly to think that.. why dont you take the spacer off instead of selling the truck? Kinda extreme to sell a truck for a $100 spacer isnt it

    I have some brand new 5100's I will sell for $185 if interested- problem solved

    yeah sorry got a little out of hand, ha, but EZ said they were not going to affect ride, i called and asked him personally, and made the order over the phone. also the fact that the lift alters the stock caster up to four degrees with can only be corrected by aftermarket uca which cost about a leg and a half (bad insurance, dont ask) but like i said, its my fault, i needed to research the product to find out these type of faults BEFORE i purchased the product, and all i was trying to do was help a fellow tw member, abeit 6 months late...

    I was kidding about selling the spacers. They are pretty cheap from Fat Bob, but they served their purpose until I could do it correctly. We are all here to learn, I have learned alot from this site. I try to absorb whatever is presented around here.

    Thanks. I had my truck for 5 years before coming here and didn't know shit about it. I asked my stupid questions and took some licks for it. I am still not an expert, but have kept an open mind and learned alot. We all have to start somewhere.

    So for anyone out there to whom I give shit for asking noob questions, I apologize in advance.
