I have been reading these forums for some time now trying to decide what to do with my truck I picked up back in February. Wanted to give a shout out to everyone for offering up suggestions, opinions, experiences and especially photos of your rides. I didn't want to do a lift kit for a few reasons, primarily because all suggestions pointed towards a BDS if you wanted to maintain integrity and a solid ride / warranty and that would cost quite a bit. Ultimately ended up going with a 2.5" keys in the front and will eventually do blocks in the back if hauling a trailer brings my rear down too low. Threw on some 37/12.50/20 Ridge Grapplers on factory wheels and I think it turned out pretty solid. All in all paid $2400 for level, tires, service, and alignment.
Although my MPG will suffer, the ride is smooth and quiet on the highways. Haven't gone off road yet but it's going to rain soon ;D
