I know...but i've seen lift kits with more parts than the one on craigslist but for a lot more money...my biggest question is, the lift on craigslist is everything i need to properly lift the truck?

It is all there and good for the price. Thats an older lift as the newer ones have all those pcs plus crossmember drops to ease the stress on the front end components

Here are some pics of my parts. Ignore the 2.5 coil spacers as they did not come with my lift. I bought and added them on separately.

Click on the link in my sig for my gallery and go to the "Rough Country 6 inch lift (new)" folder

I can tell you from experience that with catalytic converters it will not work

That all depends on your state and any inspections you must do

Well Im in FL and there are no inspections. Used to be but no more. I am told that pulling off the Cats and welding straight pipes would make it louder.. as i know that because I had a 1990 Isuzu P/U in college and welded a straight pipe and it was a loud rice grinder. But was only curious about the process of installing a flame thrower since reading about it.

Default Noise in front suspension

I have a 2wd Dodge Ram 2004 with extended Cab. I used 2" coil spacer to lift it. When I take some hole in the road the front suspension makes a strong noise. What I have to do.
