Sorry for asking this (as its been probably asked hundreds of times) but I've been looking through this forum and haven't found a straightforward answer to my question.
So I understand there are essentially 3 ways to level the truck:
1. Crank torsion keys (can be aftermarket but would be pointless)
2. Suspension lift (new springs/shocks?)
3. Put these caps on?

I'm a poor grad looking for the el cheapo method, which I understand is #1 (would require new shocks), but what is the deal with #3?
*Do you pop these under the springs? I'm guessing that would require new shocks as well. Is there any benefit of these over cranking the keys?
*Do all of these methods 1,2 and 3 create issues for the CV axles? I use my 4WD frequently and am mostly worried about this.
Also been wondering if anyone has pics of the stock ride height or after leveling with 35" tires, I've heard mixed info about them fitting/rubbing.
