Any recommendations on what brand? I dont see much that say 16 compatible but im assuming its the same as 2015??? Should i wait or go with 15? Do i upgrade the shocks and for uniformity should i change the rears?? (sorry for the amount of questions)

Thanks for your response. So im assuming these are way better than adding $100 spacers lol

The leveling kits for a 2014 2500 & up will fit your truck.

Spacers work very well to level a truck. They don't cost a lot compared to a suspension lift, they are easy to install and they don't wear out. I kept my stock shocks when installing the Tuff Country 2" level on my 2500. There is still plenty of travel left in the shock so I am not concerned about premature failure of that component.

Yes, they come with or without a shock relocation bracket.

I used Tuff Country's 32909 kit with the bracket which is why I was able to keep my stock shocks.

Having had both, I will say yes.
I bought my truck with a 2" spacer lift and got tired of feeling every small crack and bump in the road. I swapped those out for a set of Thuren springs to improved the ride.

Went with the Tuff Country 2" spacer with relocation brackets. I love it and with the spacers ride quality remained factory feel. For the price, you can't beat it and it totally changes the look. Very happy! Thanks for all the input!

im debating on a full lift or a level. I wanted to ask how far off centered the front axle is after doing a level?
