i run the same lift but i added 2" in the front and 3" in the rear, i would also highly recommend the slip yoke eliminator, cv driveshaft, and upgraded shocks which are all available through the rc website. also you will have to invest in longer brakelines and think about upgrading axles, i havent yet but im saving up for them. but the lift itself is easy to install and there is good customer support through the web site and on this site if im correct.
