[QUOTE="Sitdown, post: 1202917, member: 8674"] [B]Deaver +3s[/B] I can repeat what I said after installing them on my '12... best mod for these trucks, hands down. Bigger price tag for what they are, but worth it imo With my bedrack, and after out last trip, my stock leafs seemed to have sagged quite a bit. I'm now back up to stock height with all the gear in bed. May settle some still, and still don't have my rear winch mounted, but hoped for a slight front high stance. Currently perfectly level with 3" collars @ a little over 42" fender to ground in all corners. I did get the rear shackles to drop the rear, but held off installing to see how much it settles and keep the cushier ride for the time being. Been running 3months now, smiles ear to ear.

Once i heard the corsa kit idling though, i really wnated to try it. Having the bump kit and diff rear bumper, i did not want to run tailpipes. While Corsa was against making an off-road dump style kit, I was happy to see you can get their kit w/o their tailpipes, meant to bolt up to stock tailpipes. They include the sections that bend up for the connection, which make for great dump tips when spun upside down. I wound up just using one, cut in half for both tips, but plan to do slightly longer ones, angled them out slightly and see if tone changes.
