I was looking for a kit to add just a little bit more than the leveling kits but not quite all the hardware as it would be in a 4"+ kit.

Found supreme suspensions kit with 3.5" front and 2" rear.
Just wondering if anyone has any experience with them and if that is to much spacer for these trucks?

Would I need to email them about shock extensions and etc?

Seems like just the right size. I'm missing being high up over other vehicles but wanting to keep the truck as close to stock as possible. Learned my lesson on how much you lose on mods with a trade in. So keeping it to mods I can put on and remove myself.

Thanks!

I had to look the company up but it looks like its a 3.5" coil spacer lift
It will only cause front end problems

If thats the height your looking for your best option would be an adjustable shock or a 2/2.5" spacer an a 1.25" body lift (you could use a read spring spacer too depending on the take your looking for

I figured it was to good to be true. A body lift seems like to much trouble. I had one on my jeep and it caused a laundry list of issues. I'm just gonna stick to a leveling kit and be happy about it.

Thanks guys.

I did a 2" spacer and a 3" body lift and love it too!!! Best alternative to a gnarly lift and was able to do it all myself :)

not really sure what kind of problems a body lift would cause, provided it was installed correctly. It's not like it messes with any angles or really anything all that important.

Now if it was installed wrong I could really see some stuff going haywire.

I'd be down with the 3" bodylift but in the instructions i seen welding was involved. I just don't want to do anything that i cant reverse or anything that's gonna cause any change to the frame. I'm even waiting to look for a 4" or 6" kit that doesn't involve cutting anything. I just feel like I've ruined a lot of vehicles with heavy modding haha. Resale value at least.

A good product someone needs to come out with is a muffler tip for the 3" or 1.25" body lifts for our truck. make it like a 5" opening slip on that just has the difference in size making up the gap.

Forgot to mention I went with the rough country level kit. I will be replacing the front with the bilsteins as time permits. The bilsteins i will keep if i got to a 4" or 6" lift. Also if i go with the 3" bodylift. I'm just still researching. The bodylift seems best for warranty and keeping angles on all of the drivelines and etc. But after the 3" body lift on my jeep i just hated it. I'm going to try to fit 35 12.50s or 35 11's on it at its leveled height. Looking and deciding on spacers this week. Order tires after Christmas and all that jazz.

Yes sir...I'm trying to get it in a shop to get the 3" BL installed and 35inch toyo at/s. Wanted the MTs but i drive the truck 12+ hours at a time for work and the Mt was over kill and the ats do better in snow.
Gonna call and order the wheel spacers tomorrow. Hopefully hear back from the shop. Then all I'll need is some days off to make it happen.
Any suggestions are welcome!
