    Ehh it's pointless for some...

    Ask anyone, if u want 3", they'll tell u to buy fabtech's 3" lift spindles. That'll be your best bet for front lift. At that point, your rear end will sit a little lower than the front but u can go with longer shackles, blocks, or add-a-leafs to get your truck to sit right again.

    Go to walmart and buy the $100 Sony xplod radio. You'll be more than happy with it vs trying to make the stock one work.

    A line converter just takes the existing speaker wires and makes it RCA jack compatible. I had lots of engine noise when I did it before year's ago.

    well after talking it over with a good friend I think I'm going to have my first ever non-lifted truck. The general consensus is we're about to make a dragster
