My suggestion, go with the 2.5" HBS (about $10 cheaper than autospring on ebay and free shipping! $70 total)
It put my 07 stx dead even with the back. However, the wheel wells are different shapes in the front and back (to account for turning the wheels) and it LOOKED nose high. I put in 2" lift shackles in the back, which only raise it 1-1.5" and I love it. It now is about 0.5" higher in the back, but is very level to the eye. The either of these wont change your ride at all. So you get them both for about $125 and get close to 2.5" of lift while leveling it out
The install will be the same no matter which one you use

I measured my 2wd before my 3" front... 36" to top of wheel well... after install.. 38.5" after the alignment... 38".... I don't get it... maybe my springs are crap? Rides fine... just wish I would have really gotten 3"
BECAUSE:
I also added a 3" block to the back... the back now sits 40.5" and the front sits at the above mentioned 38"... I'm currently brainstorming my next move...
I'd rather raise the front somehow vs lowering th rear to match... I'm trying to get some 33x12.5 on my stock 18" wheels to look at home on this truck.
