That is what I was hoping for. I would rather see the front a little lower then the rear.

I was going to order that kit today until the guy from Top Gun Customz told me that after a year or two the rubber starts to squish and makes the truck sit uneven. So I backed out, not sure what I am going to do.

Its a $40 part, if it ever does that replace it. Thats less than a tank of gas.

But the reality is mine have been on for 11 months not single issue.

I highly doubt that the rubber sqishes at all over time. This is a very dense/hard compound. I think they would rather sell you one of their own products. Just buy the daystar.

Good call, gues I will find another supplier to sell me what I want. Thanks for the opinion.

They certainly wear and squish in a jeep (So does the poly) , I'm guessing a 3 ton truck puts more pressure on them than a jeep does.

If it lasts a couple years i geuss its worth it i found it for 149 with free shipping all the daystar reviews were great and if they have had problems i would have believe that they have worked to remedy it... I would say if u go to a custom shop there gonna try to sell you what costs the most or they can make the most money on u... bottom line is it is cheap and shows immediat results if itsgoes bad after a year or two you got your moneys worth but i hope it lasts longer... i will post pics when i put lift on will be here next week... Obvouisly a suspension lift is were its at but i dont have 2 grand to shell out at this time and body lifts look like **** so for now this will work.....

Agreed, plus I went on the Daystar site and they warranty there products for life. So if they start squishing then they will replace them. Good enough for me. I just ordered my kit. $149 plus free shipping from 4wheelonline.com
