I'm actually not joking at all haha. And for a couple reasons, as others have said you may not get a full return on your lift kit but that's a "Well no shit" statement but you will normally get more for it with a quality kit vs a stock truck especially in the south and California. Two, if the best lift manufacturers didn't need to cut some things to make their lifts work like you'd expect they wouldn't. But your definitely no engineer, they need to in order to make their kits work properly, accounting for new angles and camber adjustments, you name it. So at the end of the day if you want to lift it, lift it and do so with a kit your gonna love. Don't compromise for some future dudes few extra bucks (or lack the thereof as discussed) all those years down the road. Enjoy your truck. That's what it's all about.
