    I am kind of partial to the Skyjacker packs, and have no experience with the Deaver's. I would say that since the Deaver's are a 6" pack while the Skyjacker is a 5" pack that your truck would sit a little higher in the rear cause if the extra inch. And I agree with Gator on the cheaper part.

    The Deaver's are nice, but you can get the Soft Ride's alot cheaper!


    Yep, Nate was the one who told me about them

    Gator Crew is right. You can purchase a set of 5" Skyjacker leafs and that will get rid of the Fabtech lift block. Heck he got the idea from me. LOL I have done this to my truck, as I am no longer riding on lift blocks. I advise people to change those out ASAP. makes your truck ride like crap compared to new leaf springs.

    Hey, I still have the Fabtech lift block, but I have a 1-1.5" add a leaf.....The only way to get rid of your block would be to add a new leaf pack. I have a set of 5" Skyjacker soft ride springs in my garage to install, just haven't got around to it yet.

    Well I am not sure about all that. I will be running Ford Racing 4:56's with 37's(hopefully toyo m/t's). I just dont want to be driving a truck that averages a whopping 8mpg every day. I can get about 450ish miles out of a full tank, and I have a 25 gallon tank. So I was hoping maybe 16ish. I would be okay with that. I dont pull trailers or anything, and have a 17mile trip all highway to work so I think I will be alright. Just the weekends I got to worry about haha

    Hey man, I was wanting to know what your mileage is like with those 35's and that lift. My truck gets about 17-19ish with a 3" BL and 33's so I was wondering how much of a difference there was? I am more trying to get an idea of what to look foreward to as far as losing mpg's with lifting it more.

    EDIT: I saw what you put on jake's profile about mileage so nevermind I guess. Thats insane that you are pulling 21mpg's. I was freaking out when I found out I was getting 18

    Hey man i was talking with some guys about running 35"+ tires on my 2wd with 8.8 rear end. the questions were about re-gearing. does your truck have a re-geared 8.8 and what gears are you running. im planning on going to around 37"s and thinking about 4.56
