    What are some other options to level the front if i were to do a HD leaf spring or AAL to the rear other than spacers? Seeing as how I read spacers are not good for our trucks

    Got a lot of stuff lol
    Sooooo we pretty much ONLY have a spacer. Max in the front is 3". For the 6 lugs spacers aren't as good because the shocks have a 3" shaft at the bottom that likes to collapse. 5 lugs don't have that 3in area and there's been plenty of us that have sent it with no issues. Once you go past 3" the uca hits the shocks and the only way to go past that is a now extent total chaos uca. Are you looking for more lift or load capacity?

    That’s what I thought, thank you! I have like zero knowledge about trucks so just learning as I go. I think 3” is fine for me as I don’t plan on taking this truck on challenging off road trips but some forest service roads or light trails would be fun for camping. Im leaning more into load capacity

    I asked in the 2nd gen forum but figured i’d ask yall here too to keep it consistent in this thread. since total chaos and fabtech control arms are discontinued, where can we source control arms should the need arise? Im thinking of hoarding stuff that I know I will eventually need such as leaf springs 5 lug specific and aforementioned control arms.

    edit:
    Nvm found em lmao, thanks to
