I would like to level out the ride of my truck too. Could you please post a link to the parts you found? As far as which bushings are rougher it goes like this...

STOCK(made of rubber) soft, quiet, nice ride, deteriorate in some enviornments

POLY(made of polyurethane) some what soft, OK ride, can be noisy w/o the lube, pretty much won't deteriorate

SOLID(steel probably) hard as heck, noisy, won't deteriorate

Goodluck,
Edward

dont lift the front! lower the rear by removing the 2" blocks & adding in 2wd U bolts, thats like, 90% cheaper & looks better

$229 is too much. THe Daystar, Autospring, Skyjacker and other kits are around $100. But, I've seen worse. I looked at a new Screw set up in the mall today. They added over $500 for a leveling kit!
