I got 2" out of mine also and barely noticed any difference in ride. It also made it possible for me to tow this bad boy with out sagging. Ignore the first pic, touched it on accident and couldn't stop the download.

Like he said. The ride difference isn't noticeable. Potholes are high speed just feel "sharper"
And the brand doesn't seem to matter. A good mod for under $100. I don't like that the rear sits higher so ill be adding lowering shackles
