I am glad this thread was resurrected because this was the thread that I posted the model# of my billies...which I have had in for 11 months and they have been awesome...

Yes, I did put the stock insolator ontop of the new spacer. If you got the same kit I did from FBG with the new shocks, it'll be totally level when you add the insolator ontop of the spacer, it's made to go on top, here's a pic.

Quick question....I have a 2008 quad cab 1500 2wd and I am trying to find a 2.5" leveling kit to fit my truck. (I also plan to put a block in the back) I can't seem to find one listed except to fit a mega cab. Will this work? I am trying to get away from the nose dive look and also to fit 33" tires and have a smooth level looking truck.

Okay Ive been asking about this for a month....

I got the 2" spacer from fatbobs...I have +2.5" shocks on the front, and when my truck hits a pothole or the suspension travels down, its a huge jolt. I actually think my tires are coming off the ground. My brake lines are too short too. Post your suspension if you can (2wd)

Do you think i need SHORTER shocks? like longer than stock, but shorter than this? And I have a 1 1/2" block out back and the 2" kit leveled my truck, weird. Heres pics of my suspension/stance
