Dually Leveling ??s

Those that have leveled their dually. What kit are you using? Readylift spacer or Carli springs and fox shocks?

I'm thinking about readylift spacer with fox shocks and airlift out back.

interested in answers as well.
was considering a 3.5" lift from stage 3. read that lifting may/will cause issues with the front drive shaft (4x4)...?

Gasoline50 I leveled mine with a 1 inch kit. I will get the information and post pics of what it looks like. I did this option because I didn't have to change shocks and more to bring it completely with the back. I will post info tomorrow.

I put the Daystar 1" on my '17 450. No issues - does it's thing, inexpensive, no unintended effects, no caster correction needed..
Of note, the front end on the DRW and the SRW are the same (when considering leveling kits)

Very nice Longview1! One of the nicest 17' SD's I've seen. Nice to these trucks on something other than concrete and asphalt.

I also used the 2.5" ready lift with relocation bracket. Rides just like stock. I added a ready lift to my wife's suburban and it rides great. I have been very pleased with ready lift products. I'm overseas so maybe I can ask my wife to send me a picture of mine.

I just did a BDS 4" Radius Arm with Fox shocks and Fox dual steering stabilizer for a guy yesterday. Very nice kit. Everything fit perfectly. The truck sat nice and level and the ride was very good. (AS GOOD AS YOU CAN EXPECT FROM A DUALLY ANYWAY)

Someone above mentioned possible problems with the front driveline. I don't think that becomes a problem until you get 6"+. Some of the bigger kits have an adapter so you can re-clock the transfer case to help those angles.
