you have a 4x4 right? they have a solid front axle, raising it 2" should not change the CAST, CAMBER or TOE, but it might off center your axle (trac-bar) and it might off center the steering wheel. I haven't heard that happening with just 2".

 

I was always told if you put in new shocks or springs you need to align the front end (toe-in) I havenot done this on my truck yet and you can see that they toe in just a little bit. I may be wrong.................

 

The 16x10 rims are the problem. You should have gotten 16x8 rims with a little big better back spacing. You don't need 10 inch wide rims for a 12 inch wide tire.

However if you do go with the leveling kit may I suggest you get different coil springs, not the urethane spacers.

and here's a good site for all things truck related. You can find either or on here

Not to thread jack, but I was wondering what the best was also. I decided I wanted new coil spring's in the front, but with the skyjacker kit you have to put an add a leaf in to get it level. Was gonna shoot for 2500 coils that were broken in already (used)and hopefully be set, but running across those seems a little difficult. Now that you bring up those hats MMGoose, they look pretty sweet. Price is right. I was originally turned off by the hats because they seemed a little weak, and if i'm heading off on the trails, I didn't want to compromise integrity. But again MMGoose you said they held up well. What really makes me interested is they say they work for the diesel application. If its gonna support that monster, why would it be a problem for a lil ol' 5.2? Thanks for the link MMGoose, now I have something else to throw around in my head for a while....

I am going for one of those, but I have to wait until after the $2250 tranny rebuild.

If anyone's really interested in getting the coils instead of spacers, I just found this locally. You could call and see if he'll ship them. If not, let me know and I could maybe pick them up for you and ship them to you (he lives about 20 min. away, so I'll probably ask you to cover my gas to pick them up -- about $20). Here's the link --> CLICKY

 

Please be careful with this company. They screwed over someone and from the looks of it, they practice bad business. I will say they i am in the market for a level and will not give them my business or refer anyone to them.

attached are some pictures the person on the other forum posted.

 

Which company?

 

Rough country 3 inch leveling kit I'm running 305/70/16 16/8 wheels with 4.5 backspace don't rub anything that's my 2 cents

 

Yeah, which company?
