i like the stance too, the only thing is if you put anything in the bed its going to sag. i think when i get the front done i'll do the back at a later date if i think it sags to much. i still havent decided yet if im going to do the front or the dealership. i hate spending money on stuff i can do.

I think I am going to do the same thing with the rear. I will probably wait til I get the Airbags ordered and then do they rear all at the same time. As for doing yourself, just remember you didn't spend all that money on your truck just to blow the warranty over a couple hundred bucks. This is what brought me around to having the dealer do it. I was more concerned with the front because of the driveaxles and the dealer even mentioned that the stress could cause pre-mature wear on the driveline, hence the Warranty. As for the rear he saw no problems with Airbags. Said it was no different then putting a helper spring on a leaf pack. My dealer even said they would put them in for me. However this install I will do on my own since it is just slipping them in and running some lines. They saw no issues with the warranty with bags installed.

putting anything in the bed is a given that it will cause sag, a rear lift wont stop that only airbags

i had a 16' loboy with 3000lbs worth of steel on it and yes it sagged, but it didnt look any worse then before the lift and a 5000lb bbq pit hook up to the truck
