I was finally able to get the lift I always wanted. It is awesome! The only issue was the 4 wheel vaccum lines not being long enough. Had to make custom extentions. For anyone using a 3" reddi lift w/ a leveling kit. Be careful because it ruined my upper ball joints. I had to replace the upper arms and they cost $179.99 a piece. But they are a very nice addition to the lift. I left the leveling kit in w/ the 6" lift to level out with the rear add a leaf. Making my over all lift 8". The arms are perfectly matched to stock measurements. Now I could run 37" tires but stayed with the 35". The ride is nicer than exspected. Does anyone know what psi I should have in the tires? They say 50 psi max cold. But I want the proper psi for proper wear and fuel mileage. Thanks.

Tire pressure is going to rely completely on the weight you have on the truck and what you're using it for.

I have had great results with chalk and a concrete pad. Inflate/deflate each tire until you get a full and even contact patch on the ground.

My first '95 Powerstroke with 49" tires took about 15 PSI in the rear and 22 PSI in the front.
