It depends how much you want to spend. I spent $129 for 2" poly spacers, 2 shocks, and 2 shock boots. It took me 3 hrs to install the kit. The ride is as good as stock and I'm happy with the kit.
Others will chime in and tell you to get new springs, shocks, sway bar end links, a new track bar for $1200-$1500 all together.

did you change your tires? Also looking to do the same. I bought the daystar 2" leveling kit, bilstein 5100's, and a TGC 0"-3" Adjustable Track Bar. Hoping 35's will fit without rubbing.

I have the same setup. You will be happy. Tires only rub when turned hard over...

Wish my suspension geometry was outta wack, there's doing it and then there's doing it right. Take it for what it is.

Also love the 'my tire is sticking out on the drivers side and sucked in on the passenger side' look

I had the same kit with 35's and a 300 lb bumper on my 2005 for 90k miles. Never had a problem.

There's a bunch of good kits out there, it's all up to your budget. I ordered 285/75R17 tires and 1.5" spacers for the duals in the rear.

You'll clear those 35's with no problem. Back spacing of the wheel is the most important part of the equation. I ran -12 BS on a 18x9 Fuel Hostage with 35x1250R18 Nittp Trail Grapplers.

lonestar,

Did those tires stick past the fenders at all? If so how much?
