How is the ride quality? I've seen so many bad reviews and am on the fence wether to do this kit or just hockey puck the front. I HATE the high speed float. Did that go away?
I'm jot sure the shocks use here but if you want lift and to stop the float Bilstein 5100s or better yet 6112s, will get you what you are looking for

Has your ride gotten stiffer when using the stage 1? I installed it on mine and seems way to stiff.

Which spacers? How big? I have these wheels with the ready lift 3 1/2 inch lift and 305/55R 22 tires and I am getting rub on the control arms. I really want to avoid a bolt on spacer, but I’m not sure I will be able to. I ordered a set of hubcentric half-inch slip on spacers to try first.









I decided to level my truck after seeing several leveled trucks on this forum. I purchased the Eibach pro lift kit along with Tuff Country upper control arms. I wanted some all-terrain tires to go along with the level kit so I went with the 285/55/r22 BFG K03 tires. I had a local shop that I'd used for years to install everything. I got a call from the shop saying your truck looks good but we can't move it out of the bay because we can't turn the wheel! The bigger tire size was hitting the upper control arms and I would need wheel spacers to fix the issue. The shop installed the wheel spacers and that fixed the upper control problem. i needed to take it to another shop to get the alignment done. Driving to the alignment shop the truck rode so badly that I wanted to have the shop but it back to the factory. After getting the truck alignment made all the difference. The other issue I had was that the tires were hitting the crash bars when turning left or right, so I had to cut them out. I also needed to trim some of the bumper on each side so the tires would not rub when turning. Here are some pics of the new setup
