I would go ahead with the leveling kit. It'll help with alittle more clearance and make the truck look better.

Truck is a strong word because we all know 4x2s can not be lifted or run more than a 27" tire.

Wow, this is an old thread. I got a 1.5" leveling kit and stock rims with 265s and theres definitely room for 285s aka 33x11.5, but you would probably need rims with about 4" or so of backspacing to keep a 12.5" wide tire from rubbing the control arms, and the extra inch over mine on a 2.5" leveling kit should help keep them from hitting anywhere else.

2x4's also can't be lifted mainly because they're a plank of wood.

For the record, my 2WD 76 D200 can haul more crap without squatting than your 4WD Hemi can. And I don't have a need for an invisible trailer.

You are certainly going off topic and purposely instigating an argument that has NOTHING to do with the OPs topic. Please cease to do so or your posts will be deleted. Take it to PM's. You have been warned multiple times.
