Some minor lift questions. . .
#21
I have decided to go with hell bent steel 2" spacer up front and top gun customz add a leaf in the rear. comes to about $130 shipped. hopefully 1 extra set of leafs will be enough to haul around my toolbox and tools

Over the decades of owning 4wd truck's I learned that steering stabilizers are just a way to cover a problem or more like "looks" is why they are put on, if you need two or more stabilizers you have a problem.
I have driven trucks with them and without them, a properly set up and a good working steering system does not need one or two or three stabilizer shocks. For all the work I have done to my truck it still has the pos steering stabilizer from org, I have driven with it and without it makes no difference.
I had plans to change the Y linkage out to the T set-up but I am not to sure what my plans are for this truck anymore. Sell it, go bigger and make it more of a queen, or just run it into the ground.

Edit: I am taking it off the road for a week, just to dangerous to drive on the roads with it right now. She has never been this bad in/on the snow before.
