Yup, that is me. I have almost pulled the trigger on this lift a few times now.

I just need to lift the front an inch or so to match the rear. I just didn't want to put in parts that haven't been fully tested yet.

I think thats where the stabalizer mounts to. Be careful though, I installed the RC stabalizer and maybe I didnt install it correctly, but over time it rubbed a gash in my oil pan. After I sold the truck unknowlingly, the guy had to replace the oil pan due to the stabalizer. Disregard my spelling errors and run on sentences, been a long day lol

Okay thank you very much! Is there anything I need to do to avoid installing it incorrectly? Does it come with a general lay out on paper with how to install like the lifts do or is it just here Ya go wing it type of thing?

What offset are your rims and what size are your wheels?

I got both fenders trimmed in front and behind the tires but as I was turning into my uphill driveway real fast it rubbed so i guess if i just dont go to quick up big curbs ill be ok.
