You're going to be kinda hard pressed to find a 4" lift w/ dual stabilizers for that price. Superlift has a kit for around that price but it doesnt come with stabilizers.

I fit 35" tires on mine with Bilstein 2.25" leveling coils and Bilstein 5100HD shocks at all 4 corners for far less than $1,000.

What size tires will you be running? Why the need for a dual stabilizer?

I've got a single Fox Shox stabilizer on mine and it works fine.

Yo Kepler can ya help me out. I was looking at the same kit you have which I believe is called the Bilstein BTS kit for 2005 and later pickups. It's a 2.25 front levelling kit with coils and shocks and I was going to get the rear shocks as well. Did this kit allow you use factory rims and run 35x12.50's without any rubbing what-so-ever? Even when turning and hitting a small bump or something? I have factory 20" rims and I want to put on 35's but I'm unsure about the clearance on the front end??? Also You may think I'm an idiot for asking but what does the "Fox Shocks Stabilizer" do? Does it make the ride noticeably better and was it worth the money. I'm trying to improve the ride of my truck as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
