Fabtech and BDS make very nice lifts. Like I said earlier, I have 90K miles on my Fabtech lift with 0 issues. The truck rides as good as stock and is very stable. I actually forget it's even lifted most of the time. A fellow Chevy lifted trucker did recommend to me to swap the stock U-Joints for greasable ones. The stock ones tend to go out at around 40,000 miles. But very cheap to replace.

I spoke with someone at Fabtech. Seems to be a great package. They said they're product is not specifically designed for dually trucks. He also said there is no lift company that specifically has a dually option. He does not recommend lifting a dually. He recommends only leveling. That would work for the wheel/tire package I'd like. But, then when I tow the cat I'm lower in the ass than the front which isn't good. As someone mention the option is to get air bags. Seems like a lot of bull**** for little change. I found Keldrman air lifts. Anyone familiar? If my need for a truck was just to look good I wouldn't worry. But I actually need to use it to tow!
Thanks for the input.

I would do the lift / leveling and put airbags on the truck.
