Default Got Topguncustomz 2.5" level kit, but meas/2"?

I just got the topguncustomz 2.5" level kit and they only measure just under 2"s? How do they give you 2.5"s of lift if they only measure at just under 2"s? Has anyone else recieved theres and measured them? Maybe they sent the wrong ones or is that the way they are?

I just put a Hell Bent Steel 2.5" in my truck this week and it was the same thing. My spacers measured 1-3/8'' and when you put them on the struts it extends them and they are at a steeper angle . Or at least thats how they explaind it to me in the destructions from Hell Bent.

I did get the full 2-1/2" of lift though I went from 5-1/2'' from tire to fender flair before the level to 7'' after.

agreed.

I was going to say that maybe you shocks are all the way extended, limiting your lift. But im not sure what year your truck is... Its an 08 isnt it?

I only took this one after I got the level on. I suppose I could go take more but that would require going clear out to the driveway. Plus the truck is to dirty for any pictures of it to be getting posted to the internet. LOL
