I've heard from lots of people about how rough these trucks ride when you crank up the front end using the torsion bars. Will using longer travel shocks help prevent this harsh ride? What other negatives should i consider if i go with this type of set up? I would definately get the front end aligned to keep the edges of my tires from wearing out. Does anyone know if this would be enough to get 305's on without rubbing? Thanks in advance for any help.

I am running 305's on my 2000. I turned up the bars to where it sits level and installed 16X8 wheels with 0 offset. I had to do a little modifying by trimming the bottom corner of the inner fender where it covers the windshield washing fluid. I also took black zip ties and pulled the inner fenders away from the tires at the bottom. I don't have any rubbing at all.
