When I first bought the truck the dealer offered to level it for me. I took them up on it. Well… their version of level was to install a 2” spacer on top of the top hat… I didn’t find out that was bad till I joined this group. Lucky for the 8k miles the spacer kit was on it caused no damage. Truck rode fine.. almost like an old caddy but sat 3/4” higher in the front. I didn’t like the look and in turns body roll was a bit much. CV angles didn’t look bad imo. Upper control arm angle was a bit on the steeper side. I didn’t off road the truck during this time but it felt very unstable at high speed. Like it was floating. RPG 1.5” Collar Got these installed. Man what a world of difference. Had the install done by a new dealer and the shocks Zero’d out. Truck sat perfectly level, rode amazing and just felt more idk… planted on the road. Off-roading the truck for the first time with these on and it was a bit stiffer than a friends non modified gen3. I did actually prefer my truck as the stock gen3 still felt mushy. Drove like this for 18,500 miles. No issues. SDI Top HatI had these installed to see what everyone was talking bout. Getting rid of the “weak point” of the stock top-hats. Truck sat 1/2” nose high and rode just like the spacer level kit. Going through round abouts and taking sharp turns off road was not confidence inspiring. I also at times under hard acceleration the truck would sway side to side like I was riding a wave. Made sure the shocks were zero’s out again… had alignment check but idk… I just didn’t like the feeling. I didn’t get it. Leads us to today… I put the RPG collars back on. I don’t think I’ll do springs as the things I’ve seen blowing out the stock top hats. Just wanted to share my experience.</blockquote>
