2WD Lift Kits

I have been looking at Topguncustomz 3" lift kit for my truck. They have two different kits:

"Budget Kit" with coil springs, 1" blocks, new front shocks--------$230

And a kit with spindles, 1" blocks, 4 new shocks----------------$400


I am thinking the second kit will be the best for ride quality and still have proper alignment. Does anyone have experience with 2WD lift kits or pics???

Are you sure it's for a 3500? Sounds awful cheap for a lift kit, good coils alone will cost you almost $200. Good shocks (Bilsteins) will cost you another $300....

Got a link?

Hate to break this to ya, but read the fine print. Both of those kits are for the 1500 only. You can try a search on 2WD lifts or levelling kits and see what everyone else has done.

2" is easy, 3" might be a little more work.

Does anyone know the best place to get the leveling kit for my truck? I have searched EBAY and found a couple but just wanted everyone's advice and opinion on which brand. Which is best... springs or what appears to be cups that the spring sits in to lift it? I would also like to get better shocks to help the ride. Thanks!

Mines a 4x4, but i went with a 2" Daystar leveling kit with Bilstein all around. Did the job looks good, and rides better than it ever did Got a pic in my gallery if you want to see.
