On my 2018 I went with the hard to find 2x3 ground force kit. No need to change any arms, or add kits. Plus it is smooth at highway speeds unlike the 2x4 belltech kit.

Update: current plan is to go with a 4/6 drop and see how that looks with 22" wheels and 305's, then adjust plans from there. Probably going with the Inez kit. Already have the Heavy Duty Sway Bars installed front and rear (standard 1500 bar up front, 2500 bar out back).

What upgraded shocks work well with the Inez kit?

IHC 4/6 drop ordered! looking at a new years install!

 

[moregrip]

lowering kit from IHC and rear track bar from Spohn showed up. I think I'm a few drill bits and a plasma cutter away from install!!

Update: all parts and tools ready to go; install starts in a week or so!

started front suspension install; had to cut a 1/2" off the threaded portion of the tie rod and 3/8" off the tie rod end to get enough adjustment for alignment. No big deal, just took a while to figure it all out.

Got the passenger side pretty-much complete, going to start on the drivers side tomorrow AM early. Then hustle over to the rear and start on that part!

I got 2 days to wrap that all up and get it to the alignment shop Monday morning! fingers crossed!

If you're installing rear relocation brackets ,allow yourself lots of time,they are a bit of a pain to install,lol

I'm hoping a day and a half will be enough for the rear relocation brackets? Using a plasma.

It's almost easier to do them if you drop the housing out from under the truck,you can do them on a lift,but it's not as easy.

front end complete:

rear end out and ready for some fine tuning:

stock brackets cut off; what did you use to drill the holes? Right Angle drill?

ok, all complete, lots of little details I can share to make things easier for future installers, more to follow! In the meantime:
