Just to make sure i understand what the kit is i have a few questions. The front spacers are like the trailmater spacers which preload the spring or like the Truxxx kit which mounts on top? Is the 2.5" lift front and rear so the truck will still keep the factory rake or is it different front to back? if it is different what size blocks are in the back? Thanks

By the way im a 2wd guy and i agree that the 4wd drives need a good lift too but dont hate on us 2wd guys, sometimes that is all your dealer has and you cant afford the extra cost for the 4wd (such as me). wells thanks roughcountry for coming thru with this and keep going so we have some more options.

we tried both styles decided on the top mount like the truxxx, it maintains factory ride quality in front, its 1.5 inch blocks in rear, it still has the rake but its not as bad, also it comes with hydro shocks for rear, you can get the front spacer only for 99 bucks, but it will give it a prerunner look, or a reverse rake, i couldnt stand riding like that for the days they had it on my truck but if you like it, its an option

So I am going to guess that nothing right now is in the works for the 4x4 right? I mean from what I have read you are going to have to pretty much re design the front suspension for our trucks correct?

I ain't hating on the 2wd guys, just some friendly ribbing...besides, I got my truck through carmax.  I got whatever the previous owner wanted...

Hey Raider, can you get pics of what all is inluded in this kit, like in a layout form.  Also, do you have any pics of it actually installed on your truck, would like to see how it looks.  I have the TM leveling kit, and would be interested in the RC one cause it is a little larger lift in the front, plus the 1.5: in the rear would level it out better and give me more clearance for a little bigger tire than the TM kit would have allowed.  Thanks.

Raider,  the RC kit looks great on your truck!  Definitely getting one for mine...just deciding on ordering it now, or waiting 2 weeks.  Did they let you keep the kit?  Is it possible for you to post a strainght on side pic to get a better look of the actual lift....the one on the site is a little low and too much from the front to get a good idea of the actual look of the truck lifted. Thanks

I hope RC can pull through with a good 4x4 lift. Otherwise, I'd be mad if I pulled up to 2wd Dakota just to find out he's sittin taller... :)

Hey i have a possibly stupid question. Why is the lift for 06-07 and not 05-07 models. i thought they had the same suspension. Just curious since i have an 05. thanks

So I have the TM leveling kit, and 1" blocks installed, can I get a hold of the shocks for your kit?  That would be the best.  Also, can i combine the kit you guys make, and the TM spring spacer on a 2wd, or will it bind?
