Yes, that's true. That's probably what I'm going to do when I get bumper replacements, as well as have my bed color matched line x'd.

I have a question about the 4" RC lift for 2011. In the installation instructions it has you cutting something to install the lower crossmember. I am wondering if that cut make the lift irreversable.
I assume it does, but reason I ask is I have had Jeeps and Tacomas with 6" kits, and although they look great and offroad like crazy, if I decide to sell the vehicle, that is money lost, and/or the ride quality suffers.
I would like to get 4" on my 2012 but not if the kit is going to be permenant or if it takes the decent ride and makes it crappy. Maybe the level and BL is the way to go. I want a lift, but I also want to be able to take it off if I chose to.
Also, does anyone re-gear for 35s or just leave them the same?

They are just the standard gears for the 2012 CC Hemi. I don't know what they are off the top of my head.

They should have them listed on your window sticker when the truck was new. There are two different options that you could have. I would venture to say 3.93 gears.

I think most 4th gens come with 3.55 gears...if you have the lsd then you will have the 3.92's

I saw this week that BDS has a 6" lift out for the 2012s. It explains what was changed (specifically the front diff bolts) on their website.

Not all depends on the year infact you can get laramies and laramie longhorns with monotone paint now. I personally have monotone laramie with no flares and I have thought about getting the fenders done to match but I am kind of a fan of no flares though unless they are aftermarket. The factory ones just don't do it for me.
