Default 05 reg cab 4x4 level kit.

i know, use the search... im at the point that i am going to put the level kit on, well, have someone do it, its HAWT here. my question is, does the 2 inch kit, or the 2 and 1/2 inch kit work best for the "level look". i heard today at one shop, each truck is different even if they are the same make/model. if you have added only a leveling kit to your similer truck as mine, did yours turn out "level". i hate that front end or rear end lower than the other look. thanks for your time and input.

I used 2 inch and it worked great! By the way I used Firestone air springs in the rear. That way when I haul anything the rear end doesn't sit lower than the front and I don't blind people with my headlights at night. It rides Great!!!

whats a ballpark price for any of you that paid to have a 2 inch level kit put on your 4x4's. ive had 2 quotes 1- 449.00, and 2- 399.00. a buddy of mine had a front end shop, he told me i bring the kit, he would do it for 189.00. biz got really slow, he closed down. DANG.
