get a tilt column so the steering wheel wont rub your nuts..........lol maybe at the most notch the upper control arm so the steering wont rub. it all depends on the amount of bd. im at 2 1/4in and mine is steering is stock. i do have a tilt column though

Like he ^ said it all depends on a few factors. What size wheels you are gonna run, if you are using aftermarket upper control arms, how tall you are, if you are running aftermarket seats,etc... My truck is BD'ed 2 3/4 inches (no pinch) and I am running 17s with stock uppers control arms. I did not have to do anything with my steering but when I am fully laid out the upper control arm touches the steering shaft. If I go any bigger wheels I will definately need to at least notch it. If you have any further questions feel free to ask.
