their springs are worth it fabtech(deaver). it did ride better than any lifted truck ive road in but not as good as stock. they are rated for a heavy bumper so with out it I think mine was a lot closer to 6"= to tall for 35s. why not spend money on some front fenders, bow the rears and leave it the way it is height wise to fit bigger tires. pretty sure ive seen 35's maybe 37's on a truck stock height wit aftermarket fenders.
