Yeah like pizzaman said I'll only be in the 9.5" club.

I want to keep good ball joint angles so the daystar isn't going in with the new coils. But now you've kinda got me thinking. Maybe I could find a 1/2" spacer to throw in there just to be able to say it's 10". haha

Did you ever hear back from them about what ball joints these use?

thejake said he was pretty sure they were 1999 chevy 1500 balljoints but as for doestch and springtech I got no replies and left on hold when I asked. And my inner child says long travel too but my bank account says not for a long time haha

10-4. I knew they were chevy 1500's but didn't know the year. Yeah idk about springtech, but doestch's customer service is SLOW. Anytime I've ever emailed them it's taken atleast 2 weeks for a reply.

Yea, I didn't get email replies back yet from either one and its been about a week. But I tried looking online for the chevy ones and all I could find were ones like our oem balljoints where it comes with the complete control arm. It's so confusing haha.

I wish! I'm hoping they get it shipped to me by the end of next week.

I think It's time for you to invest in a body lift! haha

Keep your spacer in there, and you'll be on my level then . Youll be sitting almost as high as gator crew, but I think he about 1" on me.

Long travel FTW always, but long travel will not "lift" your truck like you think it will. Most of them are only good for 4-6" of actual lift over stock height.

Once again-no homo anywhere in this post.
