    I'm looking online for a good but inexpensive leveling kit and I'm seeing front leveling loaded struts 4WD and leveling kits. I just need to raise my front end 2 inches and then I want to add 2 more inches to the whole body after that to fit a set of 35x12.5s. The kit seems more complex with way more parts so why are the struts so much more expensive and which one should I go with, thanks!

    2” suspension lift do it right and skip the spacers. And if you are going off road at all skip the 20” wheels and stick with the 18”, better ride and protection. Its simple, spend the dollars and it will also give you a better ride all around.
    Fox 2.0 setup is a good economical one, went to the top of a few mountains with mine

    Ok. So if I go with a smaller rim do you recommend 35s?

    Alot of them
    Wheel offset is the key player when it comes to tire size and lift combo. Usually a 35 will require chopping the cab mounts.
