    In all seriousness, I cranked my '97 all the way up, got 2-1/2" and never had a problem (WINNING). I wheeled it, put 75k miles on it, and never had to replace anything. I absolutely understand that it does wear parts out prematurely, but it's not the rapid rate at which some people claim. I guess it depends on how well your front end has been maintained/total miles on the (probably) factory components. Also depends on how you drive. If you beat the crap out of your rig, **** is going to break anyway. I drive like a gentleman most of the time, so maybe that was my saving grace...

    RCX ftmfw! With any level or lift it's going to put more stress on suspension components it's part of owning a leveled/lifted truck. DO IT NOWWWW

    Not on any of the three T-bar cranked vehicles I've owned. If a boot tears, it needed replaced anyway. I never wheel hadcore in my DD though. I choose to have a dedicated wheeler for those purposes. Not to say I haven't put them through their paces though....:cheers:
