    Truck is a 17 with stock bumpers, no camper shell, don't tow, don't carry much weight and is a daily driver mostly. Just got Kng 2.5 w/ adjusters front and uniball UCAs, on 35’s. The rear is stock with Bilstein 5160. Going with Kings rear but not sure which leaf pack. Im at about 1.75” maybe 2” fromt and like it. Love to hear your recommendations. Also my brakes are soft after front install- is this from potentially having air in the brake lines? Thanks

    Icon RXT pack has different options for height buy adding a leaf. Stock height on that pack is 1.75" of lift. Dobinson has a decent reputation it seems but there packs start around 2.25" of lift. Could always get a custom one built form Alcan or look into some Deaver stuff.

    I Went with General Springs HD pack. Added about an inch of lift in the rear. Similar application as you, Don't tow, no camper and a DD. Cost effective and over the last 6 months haven't had any issues.

    RTX is pretty straight forward but their rubber bushings suck IMHO. If you can put up with the hassle of replacing them for polyurethane bushings, then this pack is very versatile.
