The rough country kit is total garbage. I had the kit on my 83, and it literally rode so rough that I used to hit my head on the roof while going over mild speed bumps at 5 mph or less. The only suspension that truck really had was the air in the tires and the springs in the seat. The seat belts were basically a limiting strap to keep the driver from becoming a projectile. Go with the Tuff Country EZ-Ride kit. You will be much happier, it's worth every penny.
