How about a pic of your truck. I've seen those rims look great on this forum, but really depends on the truck.

HOLY CHR1ST !

They want $120 for a freaking level kit? You better do your homework !!


PLEASE use the SEARCH function so you don't get totally screwed. There are several leveling kits for HALF that price.

Not sure how to post a pic on the commentc. I do have a pic of my truck on my profile though. Also I have looked for cheaper level kits but the cheapest I found was $79. If there is anywhere you know of that is a little less please let me know.

I paid 60 for my Hell Bent Steel Leveling spacers (http://www.hellbentsteel.com) on eBay.

instead of the level why dont you just get the height adjusting Bilstein 5100's? This gives you the same ride quality as a bilstein shock and also allows you to adjust the height 2" to level the truck. Just a thought.

951s are a good wheel...I considered those for a long time before I went with my Monsters. Sounds like you have a great setup (I run the same except a 2" level and stock shocks)
