I was thinking about doing the body lift but am concerned once the rear bumper is lifted the towing crossmember will be sitting below it and the front tow hooks could not be used. Does anyone know it there is any thing to fix these issues?

Scroll halfway down this page... Out of the kit you will get a 3'' Performance Accessories' body lift kit, 2.5'' leveling kit, and gap guards which are nice to have. $518. Probably the way to go if you want it to sit nicely, fit 35's, and if you don't do extreme off roading.

Does the PA kit work on regular cabs?

i have started looking at suspesion lifts too. none of them are cheap. i would say for a good complete kit installed you are looking at 2-2500$ installed.....sucks. think i am gonna have to do it though, to get where i want to be.i am looking at like 4inches. then i will still be able to use my bed without to much problems.

I hope there's a lot mre to that kit than what's in the pic. That's showing a couple of struts, A-arms and spacers. That's nothing more than a VERY high end level kit...

And talon, you can't even look at the same stuff, no coils, you got t-bars...

that kore leveling kit allows for 12 inchs of travel and more articulation even with 35s on just a leveling kit. its by far not at all worth the $2500 price tag by any means. for $2500 you could have a 6 inch lift. you already have a leveling kit hemipwr why change it for this glamorous one and be in the same situation you are now?

o no its def worth the money. and you buy the rear end ( deaver mini-leaf long travel leaf packs and fox 2.0s) seperatly. it won the best new product and the off-road impact show. yall sound like all my friends haha "jus get a 6in lift" which i could easily get a 6in lift,tires and wheels for the price of the lift, but its not what im going for. im not going for height. the point of this lift is to keep your center of gravity low. and its a lil more than a leveling kit...3in lift. but none of us have 12in of travel...none of us. its not a drop braket kit. suspension replacement. comes with new cv joints and everything. everyone wants what they want...i want this ha. its all good if ppl dont think its worth the money. ill let yall know how it goes
