I thought it would be a little tough on the ball joints but it doesn't look too bad I had a 2.5 and 3.5 so there was no question bigger is better?

I had a 3 inch on my 08 and it wasn't easy on ball joints. I don't even think 3.5 would work on my 08 . 3 inch put it at it's max I'd never go that much again

who makes a 3.5" kit....

I have 3" Pro Comp.......and wouldn't want my ball joints torqued over more then they are....lol.....even tho that won't matter its the wear that I'll have to address, but who knows when that will be as I don't know how many miles you would get from stock ball joints....and Im not really worried about that either!! ..ive see what ball joints can take, i owned Graders and the wheels were tilted alot and pounded and there was no premature wear on those puppies ever we owned alot of graders..
