HERE'S my question: If I throw on some 33s and a TF leveling kit will it still sag in the front? What measures should I take to get everything leveled out and also clear 33s?

Thanks!
How much $$$$$$ do you wish to want to spend?????...used BB and use only the fronts or new front springs. You should not need anything but the pucks if it truly dropped you 2 inches, you will ba just gaining it back and stock shocks will be fine. If you start playing with spings you may run into new shocks.

You can get the 2.5 lift springs by themselves if it isn't enough.
We were looking into a leveling kit, but bought the 2.5 with shock adapters instead. With only 1" in the back, not sure if it would give enough clearance. We also plan on buying bumpers and sliders next year and didn't want to buy another lift.


The front flares are also about an inch higher off of the tire.
