Yea i actually just noticed that. I went to their site and saw that the 8 inch kits only come with struts. Guess i should have done more looking before asking

What backspacing did you get with those rims? and do you know what the recommended backspacing is for the BDS kit?

DAM man that looks BEAUTIFUL.. If you dont mind i have a few questions,

Does the truck sit level? a few of the pics made it look like it has the bulldog stance to it.

and How accessible is the bed? I am looking at this setup but i still need to be able to use my bed relitively easily.

Oh. ANd where did you get the kit for 2100?!?!?! it was over 3K on their website!

Yes the truck sits level. Getting in and out of the bed is not that bad, I climb the tire. I still load stuff and use it like normal, it's not that bad. I had a friend at Xtreme where I live get it for me on sale. He said a dealer can get it alot cheaper then what is on their web site.

I got it from a dealer here in Hickory N.C. called Xtreme Machine. The install was only 450.00 with the alignment.
