    MTgirl,
    Thanks. I emailed Dan with these questions regarding 1st and 2nd gen and also whether we have a deadline.

    Well, you were a special case, my dear. And I am still getting bills from the therapist.

    No one was bad to deal with...it was the situation...the ticking clock toward the deadline...14 on the list....arrrrrghgh!

    I smoked like twenty packs of cigarettes that day, and I don't even smoke.

    Hey OP, any way that you can get me a contact at Alcan or look something up for me? I am planning on getting the RCD DB kit and I really don't want the block or at least want as little of one as possible. Does or can Alcan build me a set of leafs that will satisfy my need for new leaves as well as my lift?

    EDIT: I looked it up so no worries

    If you go to the Alcan site they have a questionairre to fill out...things like after market parts on your truck (bumpers, lift, etc), what sort of weight do you carry...on and on. From that info they will make custom packs just for you.
