Thanks for the replys/ bad news well having read what you all are saying my next course of action is to take the 2.5 and replace it with a 2". what kind of luck has people had with the even 2 inch leveling kit. also does anyone know if i could put a 09 body lift on my 2010 quad cab??

KEEP THE 2,5'' when you upgrade the parts for moog you will be fine!!!
the bodylift buy the 3''Performance accessories made for the truck its worth the $$$
due to stering coupler ans brackets for the bumper... after you can go with 33'' tires!!!

I have the 2.5" Velocity kit on my truck. Had it on there for about a month now (maybe 500 miles) and no issues and I drive it pretty hard on and off road. I have only heard the control arm smack once and that was when I hit a big dip in the road pulling into my driveway a little too fast. I guess only time will tell.
One thing worth noting though, the 2.5" kit raises your front end up a little higher than level. My truck looks like it is lower in the back now so I am thinking about a 1" block or add a leaf to get it even. So if you want a true level look, go with the 2".

I agree. With a 2.5" lift on the front you will need 1" blocks in the rear.Originally Posted by chiralion

what I'm wondering is if you replace all the factory junk would you then be ok running the higher kits? I just got my moog outer tie rods yesterday. will be installing next weekend.

I have the 2.5" on mine and have had no problems "knock on wood", when I first installed mine last summer, it was higher in the front at first but it leveled itself off
