Just stay away from the 3 inch kit as it creates harsh drive line angles that will make the front end parts wear out prematurely.

For any other info you might need, just search the site, this info is all over the place.

2.5" Autospring kit is the way to go.

Make sure you get an alignment done after you install the levelling kit. Got my 2.5AS done today, went down and had an alignment done and new rims put on and wow did it really get knocked out of wack. Both tires were really toed in.
