[QUOTE="TXRaptor, post: 1290779, member: 181"] I think you have pushed the shocks and steering components too far out of their operating range. I only have Geisers and my front went up 2.5" over the factory height. The front is 3/4" lower than the Deaver +3s in the rear, which avoids the uphill look. My ride is just "slightly" stiffer up front and the truck feels much more planted over bumps and around turns. It is no where near being "rigid" like the old lift kits from the 90s. I have taken several long trips with my better-half and she fully approves of the ride quality, which is saying a lot coming from someone who disliked most of my suspension choices in the past... :D EDIT: As an FYI, the Deaver +3 HDs are also stiffer than the Deaver +3s for every day driving, which is why I did NOT do them on mine. I will add the Roadmaster Active Suspension on top of my springs for the few times I want to tow, which will give me the best of both worlds.

Before spending your money on a whole new front suspension, remove their collars so you can see if you like it. If you do not, then you can toss down the big coin!! :cool: [/QUOTE]
