2" or 2.5" Levelling kits???
Does anyone have a preference? I see that ReadyLift comes with extended shock mounts. I am under the impression that an alignment is needed to complete the install.
My main concern is drivability and ride. In other words, I don't want to start fixing what isn't broke on my new truck. I do like the way it looks which is what is driving me.
I intend on keeping the stock 20" wheels and tires. Any suggestions and feedback is appreciated.

A few of us have installed levelers. Here's a link to my experience with a 2" kit.

Epic, Love the truck and the look of the new tires/kit. Did you get the alignment re-done? And what about the steering stabilizer; do you feel it is called for?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I have not added a steering stabilizer. I think I can feel a little more feedback through the steering wheel as a result of the larger tires but not much. Not enough to worry about.

Great. I'll try to get some pics up of my truck once I finish the "protection". Running "naked" now but just love this new truck. The looks, the pulling power, the control and smoothness, the mpg, everthing good so far.
Thanks again for all the information and pics of your truck. It really helped me make the decision.
