it would be worth having a try as i didnt need to extend the studs when i put a 25mm body lift in my sierra.

do vits have bolts or studs?

studs.
i thought it may have been an obvious question that i would have to extend them.

if you dont extend the bolts/whatever, you have taken 1 inch of engagement off the threads, to me that sounds scary... :shock:

the fixed studs should be ok, just, but use loctite and nyloc nuts. I through bolts in the front just replace them anyways.

Why would you BL 1"? Why not just got 2" so you can get 31s under it?
