    Congrats. Once you lift a 5 lug, it is good to have some extra cash to through on some 31s. :mudding:

    The UG is an amazing device. IMO, better than the SG. You missed out on the TW GB a few weeks ago, the price was $55 shipped. Definitely worth every penny. :thumbsup:

    It's what I'm most likely leaning torwards...for now. Might just do what you did and use it in the mean time and save up for COs and UCAs later. You don't think the spacer kit had anything to do with you blowing your stock strut? Just curious. Thanks for sharing your info.

    I have heard it will make your ABS light flash. But there is a member who figured out how to work around it.

    It is worth it. Because you are 1st gen, you might want to look into the ABS issue. I don't think all 1st gens have the ABS issue, it could be a swing and a miss.

    The struts were blown when I had about 65k on the truck. The could have been old and worn, but they did blow after I installed the spacers. But I am glad it was blown, just gave me an excuse to replace them. :) IMO, you should replace the struts just to get rid of OEM parts.

    I would suggest not going bigger than 31s if you lift the front and not the rear. You will get some rubbing in the rear when you flex the rear.

    When I had the deavers installed and running 33s, it lowered my truck to about stock height, the rear tires kept rubbing off road. So I would not suggest a bigger tire than 31s without the rear being lifted.

    So I just got a quote for rims and 33's and I saw the 31s. IMO the 31s are lame. I'm def going 33s. They are fucking beast

    You are going to need to remove your front bumper to run 33s. It is not worth cutting into because it will look funny. Besides, it gives you an excuse to shop for an aftermarket bumper. :cool:
