Don't put a class 3 on the truck, minimum class 4.

If you live where there isn't now I'd also recommend the Vararam intake over the S&B.

You could save some money and get bilsteins to level your truck. Everyone seems to be happy with their bilsteins.

Just my 2 cents!

Thanks guys, I live south of Boston so I was avoiding the vararam due to the snow. I love your build by the way xrsman!

I agree with the Class IV hitch comment.

Bilstein's are a good alternative but they do have their height limits. If you go too far you end up with a joint separation so you might want to read up from there.

I have a 2500 so went with a 2" leveling kit from Tuff Country.

Should be nice,my cousin said he only lost 2-3 mpgs with his level,i wouldn't touch bilstiens with a 10' pole as i put them on my 13 f150 which was optioned alot like my 15 ram cc sport & it rode like a buck wagon,far worse then stock(had dealer install).I hear alot of people rave about them here but i did on the f150forums as well,i guess it's because they look good.
