whats up kevin. if you are going to run the same height tires on the front and rear, then you want the rear to sit about 2 inches lower than the front for a pretty level stance. a flip kit on these year trucks will give you 5 inches of drop. so you would need 3 inches of drop in the front. you could use 3 inch spindles or 3 inch drop springs.
