I'm having an exhaust shop install a 40 series flowmaster system ($350), a rough country 2 and a half inch leveling kit ($210 can install), 33x12.50 Nitto Terra Grapplers and 17x9 American Racing AR780 Wheels (1,800).

Here's how it sits right now. Let me know what you think about the mods. I was gonna put a 4" Rough Country Lift but heard they create a lot of problems.

 

A 4 inch lift will create less problems then a levelling kit will. I used to vouch for the levelling kit but after riding in the same truck as mine, same size tires but with a 4 inch lift it's quite clear the 4 inch is the answer. Not only that but it's a lot easier on front end parts as it doesn't effect the angles on all your ball joints and what not up front.

Get a true suspension lift. A 4 inch lift isn't big, it's a direct installation and it doesn't need any other modifications to work. It's plug and play basically.

 

Could save money on the leveling kit and just crank your stock keys. I did that to mine 6 years ago and put 33's on and haven't had any issues to date.

 

Ya I could do that

 

Ya I'm plannin on doing that too once I get the new wheels and tires.
