96 2WD Lift, front & rear

What is the verdict on this kit:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Dodge...04297068QQrdZ1

Will it work on my 96 2500?

I realize I would need an alignment after installed..

Any input?

Thanks!

Don't get plastic spacers. The weight of the diesel engine is a lot. Get steel spacers.

I did a set of daystar poly spacers and rough country add-a-leaves and my truck looks great and rides good and now I[ can clear the 35" super swampers I want to put on it for weekend runs into the woods. To handle additional towing loads without dipping I put on some super springs brand overloads... they're nice.

One word... don't go cheap on the shocks. I got rough countries and they're a little stiff... I'd go with billsteins or edelbrocks... something with a better valving system. Cheaper shocks (like the rough countries or rs5000s are really stiff).
