Super lift on, few questions

well i got the truck basicaly done, it went pretty smoothe but i still have to order offset camber bushings scince there off about 2.5 degrees each. First, i dont know if i should get a bigger drop pitman arm than they gave me its a pretty extreme angle. Also is it normal to have the front sitting higher even in the 4 inch holes or will the springs settle somemore?

if you got the pitman arm for a 6" drop, then you will be fine.....i would recommend you saving some money up and getting the Superlift Superunner steering setup....

did you lift the rear by stacking the lift blocks? if you did, i recommend getting the 6" lifted Skyjacker springs and removing ALL your blocks.....that is what I am running in the **** end of my truck and it is perfectly level.....
