Re: re-gearing for 35"s
Not sure what the dealer will charge, my dealer would not do anything to change the suspension.  Keep in mind that after you crank the torsion bars you will want to get a front-end alignment. The torsion bar crank and install of new shocks and bumpstops should take less than 2 hours.

Re: re-gearing for 35"s
I just got off the phone with the dealer. Explaining this way of leveling with the Trailduty bilstein leveling kit. He quoted me approx $400 to do everything...including mounting the tires, doing the alignment. So not terrible. So $200 for the kit, $1100 for tires, and $400 for installation.
It's weird how certain dealership will only do certain things. this guy was like we've leveled/lifted a bunch of H3's. Then a couple weeks ago i was like i want to get an IPOD integration installed...they wouldn't do it. No aftermarket electronics. This after a guy on here said his dealer did one for him. Well i'm going to order the kit and the tires today.
Hopefully it all turns out good, i'll post some pics when it's finished...thanks again dude!

I would but the only thing i know about cars/trucks is where the gas goes...actually i know it goes into a hole in the side of the truck and magically after that my truck runs longer(not much longer though)....i'll stick with the dealership, since they will warrant the installation.

Re: re-gearing for 35"s
Glad they are able to work with you to get you what you want. You already have a great looking truck, can't wait to see it with 35's!
