Thanks.
First thing you need to do is measure your ride height, as a suggestion, start with a straight shot down the center of each wheel, measure from bottom of inner wheel lip to ground and post what you have. You might also want to post your tire sizes as inner fender clearances might be an issue. Finally, see the attached url for factory ride height suggestions.

Page 16 will give you suggested ride heights.
