That's not too bad at all. I was thinking it would be more. I worked at a lawnmower repair shop and am in my second semester of auto collision schooling. How hard is this to install?

get some buddies and food/drinks for an afternoon and that's it. search for a thread on how to install, or other people's installs.

I'm just not a fan of the look. The lifts that i have seen that are above an inch or 2 in my opinion don't look nice. I want the suspension lift so that i have more travel and so that the center-line of the truck is higher off the ground.

Just my view though.

The reasoning i got from them was that there are just about a million sensors all over the place and it ends up messing up the ABS, Traction Control, and there are throttle down issues.

I'm not too techy so I'm just taking their word for it.

Where's a good thread on how to do this? And what about all of the traction control sensors and all that new car nonsense? If I change my tire size will my tire air pressure light just stay on because of the change?

No it won't mess with your sensors.. I've been driving on me aftermarket tires for around 1,500mi (spec's are in my signature). No problems at all!

This superlift worries me.. a lot. What are we supposed to do now damnit?!
