Default Leveling kits

Any recomendations? Looking at the regular type the block type between the spring and the upper mount or the kore setup with new springs etc.

I LOVE my Kore setup! I've had the spacer setup on my to other trucks before and they worked but the ride of the truck was changed for the worse. The Kore system improved the ride quality without a doubt. I also got the rear system that takes away the one thick overload spring and replaced it with 4 extra leaves. Better ride and the carrying capcity was not hurt either. I also love that Kore designs the system specifically for the truck and its a tested and proven system.

I got the 2" spacers from Top Gun Customz. Had them for over two years. Not a single problem.

Here's my reason for buying KORE. Like I said before, designed for the truck rides awesome new front coils and you can get a set of 4 leaf springs that replace your single overload. Then you get 4 new Bilstein shocks. It gave me about 3" in the front and 1" in the back, it looks awesome!
Link to the kit I got. Click Here The new shocks alone cost about $340 by themself. So to me it was a no brainer to get new better designed coils too.
KORE Race Shop For all the options, but the complete kit is the best deal IMO...

Thanks for all the input and pictures.The complete kit is the best bang for the buck.Just wish the shipping was a little bit cheaper @187.50.Did you buy the kit straight from kore or from a dealer.Also did you install this yourself?You have a nice truck i really like your color since it is the same as mine.But mine is a reg cab and i did debadge it which was a total pain in the ***.Did you put fender flares on it yet i was thinking of putting some aluminum diamond plate mud flaps.Well i'm going to get the kit sometime just gotta figure out tires or new rims and tires.Thank you very much.Chad

Go with KORE... I have it, LOVE IT!!! Easy install... If you have the tools and time...bout 2-3 hours, if you take your time... You can keep upgrading the KORE overtime.. So it isn't a waste of money... you will not be looking to sell it or toss it down the road......

Hey, thanks Chad! I bought it right off of Kore's site and yep did the install with my dad and his bud at his shop. Install was very straight forward. Didn't get the flares still on the fence on what style I want. Shipping was a bit but the stuff is heavy! I felt bad for the UPS man
