Check with our site Vendors.
Are you after the McG's kit or the BellTech?

Not sure yet. Still reading posts about both. Also about panhard bars. Undecided.

If you want a complete kit with shocks, then I would go with the Belltech kit with Street Performance shocks. If you don't mind keeping the stock shocks, then the McGaughys economy kit is perfect.

Is your truck a RC or QC/CC?

QC. Been reading post and looking at pic. Really like the 2/4 2/5 look. Looking for nice and level sporty stance.

He just cut his stock coils. This is nice because it is cheap, but then it does not address the need for new swaybar end links, trac bar relocation bracket, new shocks or shock extenders, new bump stops, etc...

I'm all for cutting the rear coils to get a leveled stance, but I wouldn't not advise cutting both front and rear to get a full 2/4 drop.

Read some more posts yesterday. Read that if i only do the 2" rear drop i can still haul or tow without airbags. This true ? Also if only the 2" rear drop done you don't need all the extra suspension bolt ons that you need with the 2/4 drop. This true ? Thanks

You will still want airbags if you are going to be towing with the 2" rear drop. These coils are soft from the factory, so even at factory height, the truck will sag with a load. You would not need all the extra suspension components though if you were to just do a 2" rear drop.
