Hey guys,
I just bought a longhorn and it is stock. I am wanting to level it out but am having a hard time deciding on just a regular leveling kit (2inx1in) or a ready lift 3.5 front 2 in rear. Does anyone have this and can verify how either one rides with 34in/35in tires? Pros/Cons etc. Pictures? I think personally that the 3.5 lift looks better but haven't seen many 2x1in leveling kit pics.

Whatever you decide, do not do a puck-style spacer for the front. Lift it with an adjustable strut like Bilstein 5100 or a lifted strut.
What ThunderMug95 said!!
Don't cheat it out with spacers; do it right from the start.
The Bilstein B8 5100 series struts and shocks are fantastic.
I got them for my baby in 19' shortly after I bought my truck and set the fronts to the 2.1" raised setting, and had the rear shocks installed with no lift spacers, etc.
I roll on BFG-K02's (LT285/65R20) in the summer and the stance is perfect (for me, anyways) with no rubbing.
I have only a slight rake now, and wanted it that way because I still tow and haul from time to time.
*Edit* - also, the control and overall handling of my truck greatly improved when I had the B8 5100 Bilstein's install on all four corners. Well worth the investment.
