If you have any questions about my kit, let me know
We are country folks.. He'd have to drive to north atlanta to the offroad shop.. But i think he has a local shop in mind...

BDS would be the route to go..

I honestly love my bds kit. I originally planned going with rcx, but did more research. I plan on bumping up to an 8 I get stationed and getting 22s.

Just found out that BDS is in Coldwater MI a place close to where I am originally from and a place where I have lived in the past. To bad I'm not closer I could run by and pick one up I'm sure.

Nope. The guy that owns the shop is a buddy of mine and he said they tried to sign him up to be a dealer but the first time minimum order of $10,000. He gets most name stuff, fabtech, procomp, rcx, etc... Just for to decide how I want to do what I am looking to accomplish. I want the ability to add the level, remove the spacers with Bilstiens and limit the size of the rear block. I am assuming a driveshaft spacer would be a good idea as well? What about steering stabilizers?

If you are going bigger than 6, which it seems like you are, give the driveshaft spacer. My truck handles my tire/wheel combo

Good point. Guess cheaper then what you can find on eBay or through other shops. Get a few estimates.
