    Before I order these king shocks for my rear suspension I had one question. Can anybody confirm that the bushing for the stock shock is 1.5" wide and the bolt is 5/8"? I measured and that's what ended up with.

    Then what is the 2nd shift lever, the smaller one next to the tranny shifter?

    Does taking off the sway bar put any more stress on suspension components? My main concern would be ball joints. Not sure if the sway bar has that much of an effect on individual components but thought I'd ask.

    I'm heavily favouring pushbutton. I see the indentation for the screw below the button.

    I scrolled too fast and thought that this was a ford. Color scheme matches perfectly to my neighbors F-250.

    You just said to bedline it. Somebody might see that as all it takes to do. You'll have to cover wiring up no matter how you bedline it....

    Like I said, just makes more sense to just get vinyl flooring to better hide the wiring. Just my opinion though.

    Looks good, I would do this on my 96 but I don't think it looks as good as the 2001's-04's.

    I like it black a lot better. And the the lift, tires, and rims. I did not notice them at first.
