Daystar or Tuff Country 2" Leveling kit

Would like some opinions on which you would choose. Daystar is polyurethane, TC is steel. Which is better and why? Seems Daystar might have a little give and thus produce a softer ride? Does any of it even matter? Should I just go with the best price? Thanks.

I went with these. http://www.suspensionconnection.com/...n/329003L.html

My preference was steel. I was just afraid that the poly pucks would deteriorate over time.; the steel definately won't. The steel ones are a dark grey which match the exisiting suspension. The red spacers just don't look right to me. Mike

Thanks, Mike. I'll probably go for the Tuff Country as well. I do believe the Daystars come in black also, though.

I ran black daystars on my 1998 1500 for about 30,000 with no problems. I would probably use them again.

Metal Revetec spacers for me. Removable studs on top for install ease, black, never to wear out.

I'll 2nd the Revtechs. A couple of guys around here have the poly spacers, and they had to have their trucks realigned because the spacers are smashing down.

The removable studs sound good. I could have used that extra space during the installation.
