Level or Lift '04 5.7 2500

[SFD213]

Hey guys, looking to give my truck a little more of an aggressive look without overdoing it. I've already decided im going to stick with something around 33'' A/Ts but im not sure what kind of lift or leveling kit to get. id like to give it more height but i dont want to compromise my load capabilities or towing too much. Any ideas on what to do and if so what to use?

I'm fairly certain that you are supposed to be able to fit up to 35" tires on the 1500s with a leveling kit, but a 35 would probably rub. I think you'd be safe with a 33". A leveling kit would definitely be a lot less pricey if that's a concern, not too sure on the towing side of it, I wouldn't think it should affect your towing capabilities much if at all

4x4 or 2wd? do a search and find some of my pics. I had 2.5" level up front, blocks in the rear and roughly 34" tires. I thought it looked and acted great.

Oops I thought you had a 1500 when I last posted lol a personally I like the leveling kits on the 2500's, I have that on mine and I'm running 33s

Here's a pic of mine,

although if you have a 2wd, i would STRONGLY recommend spindles over spacers. Your ball joints and suspension geometry will thank you.
