I am saying that greg showed you the right part, just that it is to short to lift the front uf the truck up to the same level that the back is already at.

Go with either a 2" or a 2.5" spacer and you will be set.

I would say at leasyt 2.5.

If you tow or haul anytihng, the rear wil sag quite a bit if the front is exactly level, but if you never tow or haul anything, you might as well try to get the ront and rear at the same height.

The easiest way to find out how much you need to lift the front is to take a tape measure and measure the distance from the top of the rear fender to the top of the tire, then measure the front, and figure out the difference. the difference is how much of a lift you need or how big of a spacer.

And Daystar would be the best company to go with?

Will the truck behave differently in a positive or negative way?

I noticed a slightly firmer front end, but nothing major by any means.
