Well what 3" have you looked at lol? Most 3" lifts are just levelin kits that get you to crank your keys way up.

Yea I seen the keys and blocks online. I don't want to crank the factory one. Are these lift kits good? I just need a couple of inches. If I do this lift do I have to get a carrier bearing drop kit? Is there anything else I need? The kit also comes with shock extenders. Thanks

I wouldn't get it IMO. Had it and crankin the keys up that far isn't ideal. rides like crap and you wear parts out way faster due to te angles they're at. I'd get a 4" lift honestly. They're not that big if that's what you're thinkin. I thought the same thing. Did the 4", now I'm at 10" of lift. 4" isn't bad lol. And will keep your angles/ride factory like.
