Question for you guys with lift. I'm at 4wparts ND they won't sell me a 3.5sst from readylift because rhr last guy who got the lift paid them to remove it. They said it was too light at the front axle and ended up being very bouncy.. they said they would only do a 2.0 lift. Any recomendation?

Did you lift the rear at all, or was it just the front? Looks great by the way.

I believe rough country kit lifts the rear 1/4 inch via a spacer. The lift in the front is via spacer and pre load collar.

Awesome, thanks. I just ordered mine, so we'll see how it looks with the wheels that are also on the way.

I knew I would eventually want a more robust aftermarket suspension system so for the time being I went with the most affordable 3” lift on the market from Zone Off-road. I also really enjoy mine. Since the lift really only affects aerodynamics, its impact becomes more noticeable the faster you go when aerodynamic drag out weighs rolling resistance.

You had any issues with the ball joints?

Nothing in the last 11000 miles. The fact that the 3” lift is accomplished via a spacer and preload collar helps with the geometry a bit.
