Looking for just a small lift
Should I go with a leveling kit to raise the front of my truck and a rear block to lift up the back so when i'm haulin stuff it doesn't raise the front to much. Or should I save the money and get a small suspension lift? Need Help!!

The blocks are cheap if you're on a tight budget. You can buy a set of 2 inch blocks and the u bolts from Advance Auto Parts for a little over 20 bucks. They have 3 inch as well.

You may also want to consider a set of LT gas shocks for the rear of the truck(my GFs got one just like yours,BTW, they rock) if you haul very much very often. The front end rises when the back end starts to sag.

You have an offroad package in that truck as it is(Z71), so unless you plan on going with a full on lift kit just get yourself a leveling kit. No need to put blocks in the rear. If you haul a lot I would consider bags. Of course it's more pricey, but you'll get the performance you need for your money IE it will be worth it.
