I was thinking of a 2" leveling kit, or doing a full 4" kit. Any suggestions?

Slt, I lifted my dmax almost two years ago and have been very happy with it. About going 2 or 4 inches that is up to you. I mean are you looking for a mild lift or just to level the truck out? The only 4" kit that I know of is Rancho, everything else out there is 6" and up. If you decide to go with a lift do your homework as there are some lifts that I have heard of having problems. Good luck.

CST definately looks like one of the nicer lift kits. ABout what do they go for? Did you install it yourself? If so, how long did it take? BTW, great looking truck!

Thanks SLT! I had it lifted by a shop in ontario, ca. The kit itself was right in line with the rest of the 6" lift kits($1700-$1895). The 8" lift is the standard 6" suspension and then 2" of lift from the torsion keys. For a big heavy truck the ride is pretty impressive.

I did a 2" lift on my HD. It consisted of keys in the front and a 2" block in the rear. You can check out some pics here (http://community.webshots.com/user/jimwilson1000).

Jim the 2" lift and larger tires make it look much better. Have you noticed any abnormal tire wear with the keys in the front?
