2.5" or 3" leveling kit

"Lifted"
iTrader: (2)
Alot of guys that i've seen on here are running a 3 inch for more than a year with no issues.. Each truck is different. I went with the 2.5 auto spring..
I have large heavy tires.. 22 inch rockstars and 325/50/22(35) nitto trail grappler.. I only rubbed on the running board and lower rear of the wheel well.. Easy fix with the removal of running boards and a un-noticeable trim..
You may have to PM those 3 " guys and ask if they had any issues.. Mine is not a daily driver so it could be years before I notice any or no issues but i'm satisfied with the 2.5AS..

I went with a 2.5" from HBS and have no problems. I decided not to go with the 3" because I have heard of it putting too much strain on the front because it does change the angle so much. Plus with the 2.5" my front is slightly taller than the back now so the 3" would put it even higher. A suggestion i have, if you tow or have heavy loads in the bed, is adding a leaf to the back to help with sagging.

The 2.5" will probably make you more level, some people rune 3" some rune 2.5" some run 2". All in all, if you took a poll, most people are running the 2.5". Ive seen a lot of people talk about the cons of a 3" kit but never actually seen those results
