just remember all the angles and leverage points have a lot to do with the overall heigth, i only added about 3/8 or 1/2 inch to mine and netted about 1 inch more of lift... i need to measure mine i guess to see what i have total, the leveling kit didnt seem to add near as much as the extra spacer i made, hmmmmm...

i dont have any pics, but it just sits right on top of the leveling kit, ecentually making the leveling kit just a little taller, i will do my best to get some measurements tonight, i wont be able to get any pics of the spacer, as i would have to tear it all apart to see it, but i will try to get a pic of the area and some measurements to compare
