Leveling kit by Autospring will be the cheapest way to lift your truck. But you don't want anything bigger than 2.5inches for a leveling kit. Puts way too much stress on your front end. You can do a body lift as well but that can be costly if you have a shop do it.

All spacer kits are basically the same so shop around for you best deal. Like mhockey said you don't want to go over a 2.5 though.

I agree, leveling kits are the cheapest way to get a little bit of lift.

Right. All of the 3 inch kits leave the ball joints at too severe of an angle to last. I wouldn't go taller than 2.5 with a leveling kit.

IMO 2.5 is even pushing it...
