Default 2" Leveling Kit....Suggestions????

I am looking to level my front end on my 2006 Ram 1500 quad 4x4.I have seen the ready lift kits as well as BDS. Does anyone know if these brands are any good? I just dont want to put a cheap kit on my $30k+ truck only to have my suspention get f***ed up. Thanks.

My '04 uses torion bars while your '06 uses coil overs up front, so I can't speak from first hand experience, but a lot of guys who got coil spacers are not happy with them. You may want to check out the Rancho Quick Lift, a more solid setup. I'm not sure how much more expensive it is, but everyone that has it seems very pleased. I've read a few 4x4 magazines that revued them and every one strongly recommended them...

Not an option for him, the '06 definately went to coil overs....

Does the rancho quick lift solve the axle shaft angle trouble that causes vibration in 4wd. Thanks Kevin
