I haven't had any problems with my McGaughy's kit. I am using spindles up front.

ok, the mcgaughys kit is 100 bucks more than the djm kit and it uses a spindle and spring combo in the front. Will the driveshaft need some angle adjustments with the 4/6 or should it be ok? Also, if anyone knows were i can get a set of 255-265/70/16 with decent tread for cheap, let me know. My plans are for 20's but until then, i gotta get some decont tires to roll on my stockies. thanks all!!

I have had bell tech and DJM. The DJM ride with LC arms is way smoother than with spindles. I broke two Bell tech spindles. And with LC arms you can dial the alignment in perfect, I could never get the alignment perfect with spindles. I have over 30k on my Proxy ST tires with the truck being lowered the whole time with DJM 2/4, and the tread wear deference between all four tires is .025. Djm is the best kit I have used.

Well it looks like the majority of people like the DJM 4/6 kit best. I think that will be the one i will go with. I like the idea of the control arms over the spindles for ride and alignment reasons. Now i just gotta find me a good set of drop shocks.
