If you are a 4x4, don't go over 2" of lift in the front. If you are a 4x2, don't go over 2.5". There are a couple of guys that have gone higher...I don't recommend it, based on tie-rod, ball joint, and cv angles.
I tried the TM leveling kit at one point, but ended up switching to the daystar kit instead because I wanted the full 2" in the front (I run 33" tires). There are only 2 people that have stuffed 33" tires with "just" a leveling kit, myself and Cody. Most guys with leveling kits run a 32" tire (265/75/16 or 265/70/17).
Also, please spell out your words....I'm having a hard time reading your post.

There are a humpteen dozen threads on leveling kits. Whether or not you get a leving kit or not, our trucks have crap components in the suspension and steering department.
