this the exact link to the kit i bought 2" Suspension lift kit 1999-2006 GM 1500 4x4, but they have just the keys or you can but a kit like it and they give you spacers for stock shocks, i prefer just goin ahead and buying shocks, the pictures i have really doesnt do it much justice but i have had people and friends now wanting to buy when before they used to hate it, i mean mine is much higher and would never want a four inch lift cause this makes it look the PERFECT height. i am pretty sure you can figure out which picture is stock, then just 295 nittos, then lift and nittos, i am bout to put another one on a buddys z71 05 four door, since he liked mine so much i can post before and afters of that in a couple of days as well, anything you need to know, more pics etc, just let me know, i also am hooked to a double jet ski trailor with the picture with the lift on so its saggin just a tad more than usual in back

and it is at about stock position on the bolt adjustment on key and sits levell, about four turns from having them all the way up gives you a little bit of the bully dog look, front higher than back, and thats with blocks in back, so keep that in mind, i will measure the top of my fender to ground so you could take a tape measure out to your own and have a better picture of what you might have,

Thumbs up Good Info

I have no problem with buying re-indexed aftermarket keys if it doesnt torque the daylights out of my front end. I also just had my local tire shop order me 4 new KYB shocks...should I have got something other than a replacement size if I was gonna get the keys? This is the kind of info I think a forum is all about so we can gain info from each other..Hey that truck looks great leveled out man. Love that color of GMC (same as mine...hahaha)


Thanks IMAGMMAN

usually if you lift it two or three inches, u get like a three inch shock, the way i understand it is shock have a sweet spot where they are supposed to ride, if your just doin a little over an inch or so i don't think it would be much of a problem, not one that would bother me anyways, but its gonna put pressure on your torsion bars if your levellin it out and the farther you turn the bolt the stiffer it willl ride, its all in what you like more, but i figured he might would like to no from someone that has put a levelin kit on, i no i couldn't figure out if it was worth it or not to help squeeze my tires in the wheel wells, but i appreciate the compliment on the truck. but def. get some more advice on the shocks, since you are in the process of getting them put on, might as well do it right
