I had a TM 5" lift. They screwed up the steering geometry, and the brackets would shift enough to throw out the alignment whenever I was rough on it off-road.

BDS builds a quality product in my experience.

I didn't think so!! Now go read the thread and stop asking questions that are already answered in the thread you posted your question in. Always search first and then once you've searched about 3-5 times and still can't find it it's ok to ask the questions!

Please don't take this as me being rude either just trying to prevent you from being flamed on by others for not searching in the future

I've been searching for hours and can't seem to find what I want.
My rear leafs are fairly flat and I pull my boat in summer so I am looking to add-a-leaf. My question is if you put add-a-leaf and shackles, will you get 3"-4" of lift in the rear?

If so, then I will have to get new torsion bars that I will be able to crank enough to level my ride??

Tons of guys on here have done the 2.5 suspension and 2 body lift, every other picture that shows up on the homepage is of that combination. You can fit 31-32 inch tires usually. Honestly though, I have just the 2.5 suspension lift, and I'd say wait and save up for a 5 or 6 inch kit. I like mine, but I would like it to be a couple inches higher but I'm not sure that I want a body lift. If I didn't buy the 2.5 back when I did and just kept saving, I'd be able to buy a 6 inch kit now. The only thing is is you'll need bigger tires which will cost you
