ScottyBoost,
Just wondering if you were having the shocks installed by a local shop. I'm also in Calgary and I was thinking about going with the Bilstein 5100s but the quotes I got seemed high. $1100 and up for all four corners with an alignment?

ScottyBoost,
I did the Rancho leveling shocks and RAS (RoadMaster Active Suspension)on the back. I am very happy with the setup. Love the Rancho kit, the adjustability is awesome. The RAS kit actually raises the back up a little, and it got rid of the annoying axle wrap I was experiencing.
I have a 2010 XLT CC 6.5' bed, and pictures in my album.

I have an autospring 2.5" spacers up front and 3" blocks in the rear with 35x12.5 tires. Looks perfect in my opinion. Adds about 4" of lift total. And pulling a trailer, your just about level. And its the cheapest way to go.. and it works with after Markey shocks (if you chose to get them)
OP, if you really love your truck like a child, put some money into your suspension rather than throwing on the cheapest solution that will look good in a parking lot.

This is fine if you're going for a "look". Far from the best choice if you're going for improved suspension. It is cheap though, you're correct there.
