Those seriouly look just like my stock pic. Do you have any stock setup pics? This is interesting?!?!?!?!?

 

Butch, do you have anything else suspension wise on the front of your truck other than the leveling kit? It seems odd that your angles would be so severe with only a level kit as compared to the other pic of a level kit that was posted. I would have taken it off too if I was you after looking at the angle.

 

Nope....bone stock. When I installed the tgc level kit I had a beast of a time getting it back in place and connecting the upper arm back to the hub assembly. I had to force it together.....didn's seem right, but like I said after getting it in and getting an alignment, it rode fine and it was perfectly level, but I had the steering wheel woble and driveline vibes, so I removed.

I can't believe that that guys level kit pic looks like my stock. I am curious what his measurements are from the ground. I should start a poll of measurements stock and lifted.

 

mine is right at 40" to center of fender,all the way around, with stock 32" tires. and my driveline didnt change much

 

Not trying to hijack the thread, but can someone answer this?

I got a 3" spacer put in (supposedly) and the guy said I needed new shocks. I assume he meant struts (I have an 07) but he definitely said shocks. Mine did not gain near that on the front. Was I lied to or what? Did I not need struts with a spacer?

 

I never heard of a 3" spacer for the 06-08 I am confused about the whole shock/strut/spring/coil.....whatver they are called. I am confused at how if you put in a spacer AND get longer shocks or whatever, how that does not increase your ride height even more? You are dealing with a spacer that makes the strut thing longer to begin with then adding a longer shock? way confused now???

 

Butch - I don't have any pics of my truck stock without the level kit install, however I can tell you that the CV axles without the level kit were perfectly parallel to the ground... nearly no angle at all. So when I installed my kit they went to the angle you see in the pics I posted earlier.

just relooking at your stock height pic... that's about what mine looked like without the level kit.

In fact, mine CV axles only looked like your when I had the truck up on the lift and the tires were just hanging there off the ground.

Very strange indeed bro...

is there a chance you somehow turned the shock/level kit forcing it to add more lift? I know on the HBS leveling kit you need to rotate the shock 180 degrees around, but on the TGC you don't. I bet if I turned the shock on my TGC kit it would lift even higher.

 

I just ordered the Tuff Country 2" Leveling kit for my '07 1500 4X4 QC Big Horn Edition. I hope mine ends up with a better angle than that. Will post back and let you know how it turns out.

 

I am not sure. I know I took the shocks out one at a time, and I didnt think there was any other way that it would have fit back into the truck? I might be wrong i dont remember exactly. Are you saying that if you rotated the strut assembly a different way? If I remember right I thought there was only one way those 3 bolts would line up on the top? I am not sure. It was last summer when I had it on there. I am temped to try the TGC 2" level kit after seeing your truck angle. I took a jack and lifted my truck 2" from where it is now (stock) and the angle looks fine. There must have been something screwey with how I did it the first time.
