Do you have an automatic or a manual trans? If you have a manual, you might need an extension for the shifter.

filler neck might need extended,fan shroud needs moved or trimmed,shocks need nothing as you are just raising the body not the frame,steering extension needs to be used or the steering will bind a little. they are not to hard to install just watch the wiring as you lift the cab.you also have to move the parking brake cable up higher on the frame.if you have a manual truck you might need a shifter extension and trim the floor.
