[QUOTE="TheButcher, post: 2020234, member: 17003"] Great info, thanks. I'm tallying up projected costs this morning and it gets pretty ugly pretty fast going with a mid/long travel set up. While it would be cool to have an R that looks as good as my Gen 2 did I have to start considering the fact that this becomes a $170-$180K truck after suspension, bumpers, wheels, tires, lights, etc. Cool? Yes. Smart? Ehhh, maybe not so much. I can see a significant depreciation hit over the course of a few years ownership, and I'm averse to losing my a$$ on vehicles. Don't mind paying to play, but throwing good money after bad is not very palatable to me. Then I throw in the consideration that this truck most likely won't fit in most parking garage I frequent, and it becomes less appealing to me. Sounds like I should probably consider sticking with some Geisers or Eibach springs for some modest lift height, and then maybe add the Foutz sway bar. I'm liking the sound of increased handling characteristics. Sticking to stock suspension with some level springs will probably help keep that plush factory ride on the road. [/QUOTE]
