    I am seeking guidance for my truck setup-

    2008 4wd Long Bed
    Supercharged
    Procomp Stage 1 (6") Lift Kit
    35" tires with 20" Monster XD's
    120k miles

    I bought my truck setup like this. I never much cared for the smoothness of the ride but it didnt bother me either. Well now i care - and want a smoother ride as I plan to drive this truck into the ground. Reading all day and chatting with friends I am trying to weigh my options for upgrades.
    While i would love to find some stock steering knuckles, a 3" King kit and upgrade the rear its going to cost a fortune. So I am trying to look for a more affordable option as well.

    I see ICON makes a replacement coil over for the front of this specific kit (leaning towards this). Maybe some custom rear springs (Alcan) to delete blocks.
    I also see RCD has some Bilstein's setup and I could delete the spacers up front at least.

    Any thoughts , insights, experience, or other legit options would be appreciated.

    Changing out the front struts to coil overs is a night and day difference. You can also take out the rear add a leaf and preload spacer in the coil, which will help ride quality. I just took off my 6” procomp my self. Currently using the nitro 3-1 kit.

    if you want smooth ride, get rid of spacers and blocks for coilovers and leaf packs + run 18" tires
