I have been thinking about leveling my truck and don't know which way to go. I thought about lowering the back because I don't want to put to much pressure on the cv's and balljoints.. But I would rather raise the front. What keys are better forged or cast? I will be putting airbags on as soon as I can to keep it level when I haul stuff. Will my tires look to small? What do you guys think?

Well... I had a picture. Ok I got it now.

 

Forged are stronger than cast. Just a 1.5-2" level would not put much strain on front end components, if any. I think it would look just fine with the stock tires...

 

Level it.

 

Thanks guys.
I thought forged was better. But, the cast ones come with shock extenders.

 

with that slight of a lift stock shocks will be fine fo a little while...

 

deff. lower it a bit, I plan to do a 2/4 drop. A buddy of mine has his Daytona dropped 2 in the rear and it looks good, Rims still look like 20 inch chromemutant sunflowers lol

 

well since you already have the nerf bars and the black door protector things you have to level by raising the front. When people lower it they want a clean look with a roll pan. I just cranked my torsion bars and it didn't really change the ride. Makes the wheels fit the truck perfect.

 

i'd throw on some 2" lowering shackles otherwise it you lift the front you'll have that big gap between the tire and fender....not that it's a bad thing, i just think it looks weird with stock tires ya know.....either way its still a good lookin truck, just post some pics after you do it


......ok so i looked at it again, maybe the gap wouldn't be that big....screw it, lift the front!!!

 

Lift the front, it will look bad *** even with the stockers....

 

lift the front then down the road go with some 33's and 17's
