Thanks

Thanks for the info. The truck currently has a 2" lift and I am going to pull it out. I want it back to stock suspension.

It looks like it would work with the 33's. I just wanted to ask before I go though the wrenching.

Would you be interested in selling the 2" lift set-up? I might be interested in it depending on condition and price.

Thanks

Paul
