RaZoR,
Is that the kit with the leafs? How do they ride? What shocks are you running in the rear? Lastly where did you buy them from and how much?

My kit included new springs for the front, and new hangers or shackles(it uses the factory leafs)in the rear. They have to cut the factory ones off but it was no big deal. It also includes new bump stops, hardware, and shims to re-align the drivshaft. I went with the nitro drop socks which were not included but definitally worth it!!!!! My cost is in pesos(oops i mean canadian dollars) I think the whole thing installed cost me about 1000 bucks. A local speed shop did it for me (Markem Performance)
The trucks rides pretty much factory but a little stiffer, not much. I'd really suggest getting ALL new shocks, front and back!!! I think I may add larger sway bars later. But the body roll is still better than factory.

Sorry for the long post guys......
