Thanks Monkey! Easy enought to understand. Yeah, I knew the 4x2's were capable of a slightly larger lift in the front, but wasn't sure if they were susceptible to some of the problems the 4x4 guys encounter when trying to lift the front end.

Thanks for all the responses fellas and monkeywrech for that write up. I don't know much more than the basics about the suspension system for this truck. Anything else you guys feel that I/we should know?

Cheers,

Ps. I will keep you guys updated with what I decide to do and will get pics up asap. But I don't acutally get the truck until June 1st.

Oh, and guys I don't know if yall knew this or if this is applicable but what the kit actually includes is:

Front strut extensions & stud extensions.
Also available with rear 1.5" blocks, u-bolts, and rear RC Nitro 9000 series shocks. ($50 more)


Do these front strut extensions relieve some of the stress you were talking about Monkey?

and my truck is a 4x2.


Ok guys thanks again

When they say front strut extensions, they are actually talking about the leveling spacer, since it technically makes the strut taller.
