Then the original spacer kit was $200, now where up to $900 plus shipping for all of these items. Like I said before I think the $1000 price tag is high but the 4" kit is $2500 bucks. I think it all depends on what you want and what makes you happy. If you want to spend $500 on a cheaper kit and possibly risk loosing the warranty and free service then that is your right it is your truck. Just remember that the Driveshafts seem to be the weak point when lifted. Buy another kit and they are not covered. Blow one out and you can plan on spending about $500 bucks out of pockett. Maybe you will get lucky and not have any issues. I just feel to me personally that I spent all this money for a new truck so putting cheap parts on it to save a few bucks doesn't make sense. I prefer to spend a little more and know when something goes wrong that my dealer will have to take care of it. Do you really think that, that local 4wd shop will give you a free driveshaft when you break one? My guess is no and the dealer will tell you that the lift caused a bad angle which led to the failure. One last thing I know there are some really good companies out there that make really good kit's, Kore comes to mind first. There 2.5" kit is $1800 bucks but you get a lot but you also loose the warranty. As you can tell the Warranty is very important to me and I do not want to risk loosing it. So again for me Mopar all the way. If that means I can't afford something right now then I save and get the dealer part and keep it right. This is just my opinion, not trying to push my opinion on anyone.
same here.
