4 1/2 blocks up front

The most dangerous way to lift a truck. Whatever else you do the number one thing on your list should be to get rid of the front blocks first and do it the safe way.

Re: New Guy/kid To Forum
anyone out there makes a pretty good lift for these, they've had many years to do research, lol. i like Superlift myself but they are all pretty good. Rough Country isn't too bad either...

as for a bumper...buckstop makes some nice ones, as well as Reunel...

Best budget springs IMO are Tuff Country. They ride a ton better than the Rough Country (brick) and are pretty affordable.

Bumpers are $$ for decent ones...
