I saw in another post its and 07 so....

I have a spacer myself and love the looks of it, but since you might want to go with a true suspension lift I would recomend rancho. They make a 4.5" lift that is more like 6"s when its all said and done. I have seen superlift kits and like them too, there kit is also 4.5"s.

Mine firmed the ride up just a little. When I first got it I felt like there was more body role, but that was probly me just imagining it.

What are you asking about the 4" front and 2" rear?

thats pretty much what i have. just a 2" spacer kit in the front. and just like Tide said, it stiffened up the ride a lil bit, but that could also be the massive meat cleavers called tires that i have under there. the only thing u really have to worry about when putting on a leveling kit is that it gives the tire a different wear pattern, since it puts the arm at a different angle. but it still looks good, its cheap, and i havent had a problem wit it yet.

I like the superlift kits, since it is actually a 4.5" lift were the supposed Rancho 4.5" kit is said to be much larger that 4.5"s.

You can fit 35"s.
