I have 2 inch lca and my aliment shop told me it was one of the best kit he had seen for get the aliment back to spec. Even over the bell techs which he sells.I got 35000 out of my proxy's. With stock tires I had no bump steer. When I went to 20 and 265 50s I do have it. It not that bad. Ever one has their own opinion on how they like a truck to ride. I like the ride of lca over spindles. It is softer

I have the McGaughy's spindles and yes my turning radius has decreased. I drive an EC, but I would rather deal with the turning radius issue than bump steer. Over all I am happy with my McGaughy 4/6 drop.
BTW, I did not have much of a problem with customer service.

I dont think the bumpsteer is as bad with the 2" LCA's compared to the 4" LCA's but i guess it also just depends who you talk to cause some say its bad and some say they dont even have it.

I think it has alot to do with the tire ratio and how wide they are.

I'm running 265/50/20. Only on rough roads do I ever get bump steer.Your tires side wall is is 1 1/2 shorter per side then mine. So yes you will have more bump steer than me. The main thing is don't fight the steering wheel. it just makes it worse. Let if float. Just like if you have ridden a motorcycle in sand. I have thought about doing the tie rod flip kit, but I don't think it is worth the time for what little B steer I have.
Let me know how yours is when you get it done.
