It's the four inch Superlift K632B. The B denotes Bilstein. I'd definately through down on the good shocks.

Payload should stay the same, nothing was done to change it. The lift has only been on for a week or two, haven't had a chance to tow with it yet but I'll post back when I do. It has a tiny driveline vibration that lasts for literally half a second on take off and that may be amplified when I tow.

Well, as promised, I said I'd report back with the tow manners of the truck. Nothing has changed since I lifted it. It still has the slight shudder on take off, but it's minimal. The truck has the two piece driveline and I have not yet shimmed it to try and eliminate the shudder. No big deal.

So far as towing though, it tows great. One of my biggest reservations on lifting the truck was the tow manners since that's all I do with the truck. I absolutely would not hesitate to do another 4" lift for towing applications. Do it. Do it now.

That's great news, man. I wonder if the towing manners applies to the coil spring front ends as well.

Thanks. yeah, I did it myself. It's just nuts and bolts. It's not like rebuilding a helicopter transmission!
