    No doubt going to eat tires like a mofo without arms. Just ask me and my kick ass + camber woo hoo. depending on what arms you buy, you may still have some + camber and eat tires but maybe a little less.

    I think the worst part about the Revtek is the 1.25" block, even more than the firm ride, wandering, uneven tire wear and bump steer you get from the front end. I know the lift was a gift which is cool but do yourself a favor and spend a few bucks and swap that block out for a AAL.

    Try driving 55 MPH (actually to not possibly kill your truck just do it at 15MPH) and slam on your brakes to the floor till the truck comes to a complete stop and get back to us on how the block works out. Or just let the truck roll foreward at about 1-2MPH and jam on your ebrake. Really neat sounds it makes:eek:

    I really don't think the Revtek setup for the front is all that bad if you want 3" of front lift. It you get coilovers and crank them to 3" it's going to ride rough, then you might complain about spending 800-1400 on coilovers and getting a rough ride from those, though maybe a tad better than a Revtek.

    Not trying to give anybody crap about the Revtek lift because I have it as well and I hate the rear block more than anything, well tire wear ranks up there as well. $1,000 for 4 new tires every 14 months is going to get old for me fast and that's with frequent rotating.

    The only reason I did the Revtek is because at the time I was going to get SAW's. back ordered. The I was ok I will get 2.5 SAW's Backordered. Ok ok, I will get 2.5" Camburgs,.. also backordered. I should have said fug it back then and Just got Kings. Since they are so expensive doubt they are out of stock much.

    Sorry i had my period today puahahahaha.:(

    If you never go offroad and use the gas pedal or need to make an emergency stop and don't mind buying tires a lot, it's a great lift.

    Damn I sound like I'm in a bad mood. I'm on vaction for the next 2.5 weeks:D
