I gotcha Adam. I'm not sure if 3" would affect steering components or cause funky angles or not bud.

You might also take a floor jack and lift the chasis 2" and then 3" to see what angles you have to deal with. This might help in deciding.

okay...just measured the front and rear from the ground to the bottom of the fender lip...
Front= 33.5 inches
Rear= 36.75 inches
Now, I am 95% sure this truck is sitting on stock shocks, so I wonder how much of that I can make up with new shocks...thinking an inch at least??? then I can get the 2 inch spacers (urethane)

I know mine sat about 3/4" higher in the rear after replacing my shocks with some Monroe's. Didn't measure the front since I did the leveling kit at the same time

Don't rely on shocks for lift unless they were designed to lift (spring or air bag assist). Shocks only control movement and do not support wieght.
