IMHO and if it were my truck I'd just re-spring it with OEM springs and poly bushings with a good set of shocks. Get rid of the lift and be done. Of course the RSK and SD springs will give you a better ride up front. But then you have the front high look. Tom S has a pretty darn good set up on his rig.

It really depends on if you want it to be lifted or not.
If you want a better ride and don't want to spend a bunch, then I would put stock springs with poly bushings front and rear, 3" RSK in front, and 4" block in the back.

I'd like to stay lifted only because I fell in love with the truck that way but I'd entertain the idea of bringing it down a bit... I'm due for tires and the price of stock height tires sounds much more attractive than 35x12.50x18's. I like the front high look of the SD's, I had a lifted '04 and loved the nose-up stance. I have seen some of these 4x4 OBS trucks that sit really low from the factory and ive seen others that sit up like a highboy.. Any idea what the deal is with that? Not that it matters I suppose they'd both ride almost like mine does now.
