Got RCD lift kit

i just put a 6 '' rcd lift kit on my 99 dodge diesel . kit was not very eazy to install due to new longer lower arms had to drill like 6 holes for them grinded a lot then like 4 in the axle not as hard tho . 4 on front link mount . welded the track barket on due to the cummines no room for bolt .

but other than 2 long days of work i like the kit . only thang im not a fan of is the big block i think the block is like a 5 '' block . and came with a add a leaf . but the kit dident give it a true 6 '' prob more like a 3 or 4 in back .

one qustion has any one had any other probs i might need to check on or keep my eys on ect .

thanks nathan

Most lift kits do not raise the truck evenly. Their advertised height is the amount of lift the front gets. The back is usually enough lift to make it level with the front, typically 2-3" less.
