The RST Ground Force Drop Kit is 2-4. In the new body style Ground force designed a special kit for the RST that was not used very many times, it was a 3-5 kit.

Regency did make a limited number of the Extended cab RST in both body styles.

yes most of the RST's received the 1.3/3

and on that ECSB RST tell him 25,900 is too much....at least IMO it is...the aftermarket parts hold no value really i mean even with only 4200 miles in todays market you shouldn't pay more than 20 for that truck because once it's yours i bet you can't sell it for more than 15...just my .02

Its about the same as the one the truck comes with. I did it because I personally think it looks better than the one the RST's come with. And it does not specifically say it fits our trucks past 2003, but its the same transmission as the 2003 models. I believe the shifter for the 2003 and earlier trucks is longer than the one the 2003 later trucks come with. I have been using my shifter for over a year now and have had no problems.

it's not even close to the one the truck comes with?

i sat in his driver seat & shifted it around a little bit it's a MUCH tighter shift than whats in our trucks
