You may be able to retain stockers.

I have stock shocks with the coils.

I have been debating on upgrading to the Bilsteins Maxtrac sells for 2wds. They are NOT the same as the 4wd ones

yes, spindles, springs and new shocks
Thats a great looking truck! I'm about to install a 4.5 Maxtrac lift kit on my 2wd. What size tires are you running? I'm leaning towards the Ridge Grapplers, how's the ride?

Love the ride...actually as quite as the Nitto Terra Grappler G2's I had before. The kit rides awesome...as good as stock.

Wheels are 20x10, and tires are 35x12.50x20

And thank you for the compliments!

Thanks for the info. That's the setup I'm going after. I'm going to replace the front shocks with Fox shocks to match the rear which comes with the kit.

How's the tire wear? How many miles do you have on them and how are they lasting?

Lift coils? I don’t mean to be dumb but is it a coil spacer or a coil? Looking to lift the front of my 2wd 17 qc Express.

I’m going to do this then! It’s ok to retain stock shocks and upgrade at a later date then?
