Just in case anyone wants to start saving there pennies. This looks promising.

Looks good. Will be considering it. Biggest dilemma I'm facing is I will never be taking my truck offroad. In Central Texas I may only use the 4WD a couple times a year. I'm considering just doing the Readylift SST 3.5 kit since my truck will never take any abuse anyway.

Why? I thought Texas was full of trails and land and what not. Btw the spring that goes sandwiched inside the strut from the 3.5 kit is trash. Its altering the spring rate.

There are plenty. But between work, kids, school, football practice, there just isn't enough time.

Those couple pics look pretty nice, but would likely be overkill for me. Plus, I have a feeling the ride will be quite a bit stiffer over stock with that setup.
I've had a Carli suspension system in my '05 2500 Cummins, and that was a great system, but I don't need a $4K system anymore. I'm not going to be doing any serious off-roading in this new truck.

No way it will stiffer with that coilover set up.

Trails are getting harder and harder to find even in north Texas. I’d love to find a place for off-roading trails around here. Not mudding or scratching my paint either. Just a fun trail ride and picnic.

You need 2 trucks, son.

One pretty one...you got that. I love that blue.
One ugly one....easier to find, buy a welder.

When I get to TN, that's my plan. That's why I left suspension and tire size stock on Big White.

Didn't say anything earlier, was a little afraid, you know, only 4" and all. That's a helluva admission to make around all this Testosterone.

If ****olet means Chevrolet, we ain't brothers,we aint partners and we ain't friends no more. Well, if you mean trucks only...yeah, I'm with you.
Still got a nice balanced, blueprinted 406 small block on an engine stand. Thats going into my ugly one once I move.

Came out of a K5 Blazer. Truck rusted away and I sold the pile of parts and rust. the motor was all I kept. I built it and I put it in. Only had 15k on it when I took it out. The block was from a 72 truck, 4 bolt main.
