I just have a question for you guys that just did the 2.5 up front. Does it truely sit level or is it a little front high, I'm just wondering if I should buy the 1" blocks for the back.

With the 2.5, mines still just a tad high in the rear. And after adding the monroe shocks with springs last week, it's almost 2" higher than before.

So far I've just replaced the rears with the coilover shocks. Monroe part number 58643.
I'll be replacing the fronts on Thursday. I don't expect any height difference with those, just better ride and handling.

remember guys 04-05 trucks sit an inch higher in the rear than the 06-08 trucks. so if you have a 04-05 a 2.5 will sit it level but a 2.5 on an 06-08 truck will be nose high. 06-08 trucks are better with a 1.5 or 2 inch kit.
