Who makes the best leveling kit?

Thinking of installing a leveling kit and puting on some 35's and I just wanted to know who makes the best and what kind do yall have?

Also, what's the largest size tire I can put without a lift? I'll probably put Goodyear MT/R's.


Thanks

Let's see some pics of that new beast! (Great color choice, by the way. ) I can't tell you about the leveling kit - but if you are planning on keeping your stock rims, I personally wouldn't go biffer than a 285/75/16. Others have gone with 305s, but I would check with the manufacturer of the tires you are going with to see what the recommended rim width is. As far as rubbing goes (at stock height) I believe 305s will work.

Here's one. I'll have to post some more. I looked at all the colors and that's the one that I loved the most. It was also my origional favorite.

Possible future mods:
Tint
Straight pipe exhaust
Some sort of leveling kit
35" tires
1 10" speaker
Chip
Mud Flaps
GPS Module for my Palm m130
I'll add more to the list when I think of some.


I still can't decide if I want to put my Kenwood cd player in to replace my in dash 6-disk. Boy do I love that 6-disk.

Thanks

My buddy has a Z-71, and when he put new tires on it, it made it look 10x better. Huge mud tires have to be the best mod.

But one BIG problem is that it will make my truck higher. How is that a problem you ask? Well...I have about 1" of clearence in my garage now. If I lift, that will suck as far as keeping it clean. But...it would open up many more options. If I opted for big tires, I'd then put a lift, and some sort of brush/grill guard. So now it's a game of give and take.

I just need as much info as possible to make the right decision.

Well, for me it would be an easy choice.

I would love to be able to put my truck in the garage.

My problem is that 1. my truck and my wifes car with my bikes cant all fit. 2. I have cabinets at the front of the garage so my truck wont fit anyway

I vote to keep your garage access, your truck looks great already

IMHO, the best is Jack-It by far. It's a very easy install, it firmed up the front suspension just right, good quality hardware, and a good price to boot. You can forget about your truck fitting in the garage after the lift.
