Default 2 inch vs 1.5 inch leveling kit

Does any know whats the difference other than height? will the 2 inch make the front end look higher? do you still get the rake look with the 1.5 inch? which is recommended to get a true level

The 1.5 will level you.

The 1.5" is only made by trailmaster. There kit is superior to the rest of them because it installs as a coil spring pre-loader. This allows the shock inside the strut to remain as the suspension limiter, which prevents the cv joints and tie rods from over extending.

The 2" kit mounts on top of the entire strut housing, like a crown.
