Leveling kit novice ?

I am seriously considering a daystar kit but i have several questions, i tried to search the forum but it said the feature was disabled. So:

1. What kind of price range
2. are there any negative effects on the truck
3. is there any other information you can give me that i didnt ask about

thanks for the help

also post any picks of truck that have had this done

I think i'd paid about $120us, got the daystar 2.5" lift on my lariat , and had it installed at my dealer. Looks much nicer with the 2.5" lift. Just make sure you do a wheel alignment too making sure everything is all good. Also make sure you adjust your headlight too or you going to have alot of people flashing back at you.

I installed the autospring 2" kit. About $100 factory direct on ebay. All metal construction (? possibly more durable than the Daystar). Took one and 1/2 hours to install. Looks great, no ride change.
