I know this has probably been discussed before but I can't decide on the Motofab 3" kit ot the HBS 2.5" kit. My truck is a 2013 CC 4X4. I would rather have the 3 inches of lift but I don't know if that is to much of a lift as far as wear and tear on the truck, making it ride different than the 2.5" or ?
I kinda like the nose slightly higher or exactly level. I am doing this real soon, I will also have 315/70/17 tires on Method wheels, the standard black model. Thanks for any input!

The max suggested is 2.5" if you got with the 3" your front shock will be fully extended so you will bounce around a lot. There are guys who run the 3" but most people go with the 2.5" HBS kit. Or you could go Bilsteins at 2.8" and not have the same issues as the 3".

Do the Bilsteins actually lift the truck 2.8" ? Thanks for your reply.

You can set them to several intervals of lift but yes they might settle closer to 2.5" after time but they will give you lift.

I had the adjustable Bilsteins set at 2.1 and it leveled my 09 nicely.
