Bilstien Leveling Kit

Hey all,

I finally installed my 2" leveling kit and did an alignment, as soon as I can talk myself into going back out in the cold I will take some Pics for you.

How is the ride/handling aspect of it? Did you put on Bilstein rears too?

Yeah seems to ride and handle a lot better. It has been in 4wd the last 2 days with the weather. Bilstiens all the way around 5100's in the rear also.

The Gallery has been updated, wouldnt let me create a new one though. Hope everyone likes it...I do. Now I need to get some new tires for the extra room. Anyone have any ideas??? I have the factory 20" wheels and I would like to keep them.
