I truly think this would be a great combo. Great bumper too.

Rancho 2" springs up front, stock springs in the rear, 1" spacers all around. Leveled out perfect.

Looked at a BB briefly and ended up waiting a bit and getting a BDS 3" lift with fox shocks and I'm happy I waited, it handles great on the road and I'm much better prepared for moderate rock coaling and stump avoidance

If you put out a small BB your going to be wishing you did a bigger suspension lift and be out the $ you paid for the BB

I've got the RC BB on mine. It has been on a couple thousand miles now, it works great for me. I don't have the need for anything more elaborate.

That was my original plan. I originally bought my leveling kit for my 32s. I didn't get around to getting it installed until the 35s were on, was content on how it looked. I recently saved enough for a lift, but I was just getting sick of 4:10s, automatic, and 35s so I opted to regear instead. Saved again but then I needed new ball joints, axle seals, track bar bracket and the tailgate was creaking so ordered a Teraflex hinge. So now I'm broke again, lol.

Wow that's nice! Wonder if mine would look that good with 35s. I have the TF 2" up front 1" in rear level and 1.25" body lift with my 32s right now.
