I have a 2012 1500 4WD that I'm looking to level, any suggestions on leveling kits? Thanks.

I want that too, just afraid of the potential for a "death wobble"

I was too... I went instead with the 2" from HBS and wether or not that .5" really makes a difference, it made me feel more like I wouldn't get the wobble but it still looks good.. Just the right amount of rake left

2.0 is fine if you dont want to add 35s, youll need 2.5 if you plan on adding big tires

Trucks with IFS won't get death wobble the problem that they do have is a slight vibration in 4 wheel drive when the cv joints are angled to much

I'm not sure I've heard of to many people, if any at all that have vibration problems besides when using four wheel drive although many do get a slight shudder when accelerating from a stop in four wheel drive when they lift there truck any higher then 2.5" with this style of lift

I also vote for the HBS 2.5" kit. Here's a pic of mine with that and the 1.25" Rough Country Body Lift:

I've got the bilsteins and a 1" coil spacer in the rear. They ride great.
