    Sorry man, I waited a few days to hear a response, but I had to order my rear lift to get everything together at the same time. I went with the new pro comp rear lift. Sorry and hope there is no hard feelings. Hopefully you can sell it on one of the forums. Have a good one bud.

    Performance lifts emailed me back and said CST wont sell it separate, if I needed the bracket, it would take CST 4-6 weeks to package it separate and send it out, and would cost more than the 4'' kit itself, bull crap! owell guess I will look for the bracket elsewhere.

    Go to ramforum dot com, under 4th gen lifted section "Do I need new shocks" on the first page talks about the shock extenders. I believe the extender slides onto the rod of the shock in between the nut that holds it on and the coil bucket. This kit on Ebay looks like it comes with shock extenders(have not contacted them to see if that's what that is in the pic) http://www.ebay.com/itm/1994-2012-Do...f12464&vxp=mtr Looks like the bearings in the hub are shot on yours maybe? Check on that, never had to deal with that before so I don't know for sure, but that's my guess.

    Yea, I saw your video on the coil bucket situation. I have been doing a bunch of research and found the 2'' front spacer to be the best option. But I have also seen a few guys running a a small shock extender with the 2.5/3'' front and say it rides a lot better and doesn't let the coil bucket hit the UCA. The extender is only 3/4'' or so and isn't as bad as adding the longer shocks. I dunno for sure, that's y I am leaning toward the 2'' front. And if I want a little more lift I can do a body lift. But yea my truck sits dead level by measuring tape with the 4/1.5 and actually looks a little nose high. So I figure if I add the 2'' in the front with 2.5'' more out back, should sit pretty well like that. And that's crazy how much rake you have. I would be way nose high with your setup. Any luck on the hub issue? You think that is from the heavier tires and wider wheel set up?

    I emailed performancelifts. I do have 4'' in front and am going to do a 2 or 2.5'' spacer up front with 4'' in the back...eventually. I will let you know what they tell me. Might just be cheaper to do the kit though, not sure.

    I just emailed them about separating the kit. May be Monday before I hear anything back from them. But I doubt they will do that. Do you need the drop bracket and longer shocks with just the 2.5" rear kit? I had another guy asking me, but didn't know for sure.

    Thanks man! My tires are 35x12.5 wheels are 10" wide I believe and -24 offset. Honestly, I only got the bushwhackers to keep the rocks from hitting the sides of the truck. Ill be doing the Ramrunner bumper soon, and we will see if I keep the bushwhackers or go with the Ramrunner flares as well. I like them a lot though.
