Long arm kit?

After 3 years the ride on my cummins is just too dang rough. My wife needs to wear a sports bra just to go to the grocery store. I'm running a pieced together lift kit with 5" springs 2" spacers and "extended" short arms. I'm thinking I need a long arm kit to increase ride quality or maybe something else in conjunction? Anyone bought the kit from Top Gun Customz for around $800? Or what are some other options here? Thanks

Unfortunately, unless you go with a softride kit, which isn't really that soft, on a 3/4 ton, or a Carli, 3 grand, you probably aren't going to see much difference.

The long arm kit will just get the front axle back to where it should be in regards to the frame and wheelwells, It may give the axle a bit more leverage and soften the ride a bit, but I doubt it will be night and day.

Might as well just enjoy the show!
