You wil need to correct front castor angle to bring the geometry back in spec. Three degree correcting arms should do it. That's what I run anyway. I would also install an adjustable pan hard rod. With the added height you want to make sure you track straight and true doing 70mph down the freeway.

If you want to go the cheapeast and easiest route go with a 2". A 3" lift would only allow you to fit a 33's which you really wouldnt benefit from, unless your locked and regeared.

A lot of 3" lifts don't require anything, its looks funky though with 32's.

Although I would really think about what you want from the truck before buying a lift. I bought a 2" lift, extended ss lines and all that jazz and regret it, Its all going into le trash now for me.

What do you regret about the lift? I am looking at the 2" Terrafirma springs with the Pro Comp shocks.
