Critics will always have something to say, mostly negative unless you follow their advice and most of the time they have absolutely no experience other than he said she said. Go with what you know. Hopefully, you know that going higher than 2” “always” affects the geometry of your suspension in a negative way, diff drops are cheap to do and help tremendously. New Knuckles will widen your track. I highly recommend CST Suspension systems. Little by little you’ll figure out what’s best for your own vehicle. Good Luck! [emoji106][emoji2532]

How’s the ride quality, anything you’d change or add if you could?

It rides way better than stock. I’m not really sure what I would add. Maybe upgraded tie rods and sway bar end links. Idk lol

This is what my truck should look like minus a couple inches height wise and NO Fender Flares!

Looks nice! I don't know if they sell it separately but when I got the BDS kit I opted for the full rear leaf pack instead of the block. I think the up-charge was around $400 or so. I think it still sits on the stock block, so you may have to get those if you didn't keep your old ones. My fender height went up 5 1/4" from stock and sits just below the front after the BDS 6" lift (less than 1/2", but I almost always have some weight back there pulling it down too). Install might be interesting, I guess the shop I went to hadn't done many of them and didn't realize the mounting bolts for the leaf springs all have something right behind them (tow package, gas tank, don't remember exactly). They didn't outright say it but I got the impression there would be a bit of an installation upcharge for the next one of those that they do.



Thanks, man! I’ll have to look into it. I’m tired of the giant block haha. And I want to maybe look into a coil over that won’t break the bank.

Thanks! I have decided not to go with the fabtech and now am looking into the BDS and CST kits. Can coilovers be added to the CST?
