Default Revtek Leveling Kit

Before the 2" leveling kit.




After Kit.










You really can't see a difference until you go to get into the truck. I have a freaking bruise to prove it!!!!!

So, did you use the bushings above the struts?
If so, I was told that would overextend the shocks.... but how? if you just raise the body off the top of the strut??

I took it into California Truck works to get it done. Truthfully,,,,i don't know what they put in!!!!! I can't see any spacers above. I called Revtek personally, and they said the same thing....no need for a longer shock. I'm gonna stop by California truck works tomorrow and ask what exactly they did.

I put a 2.5 inch leveling kit on my 4x4. The way that the kit I used worked was that it sat between the top of the strut and the truck. If you look in the wheel well you can see three bolts that hold on the top of the strut. those bolt to the bottom o the spacer and the spacer has three bolts on top of it that go back where those bolts were. there was a minimal change in handling but the kit jacked up toe in so I needed to get an alignment. My kit is the top gun customz one, which I got because of it's ease of installation... still took like 3 hours for me to do but still....

I used the Top Gunz as well. The next step is a set of 285/70/17 BF A/T

I am going with the 295 nittos or failing the the 285 BFG or maybe if i can find it the wrangler with silentarmor...

I also raised my rear by like 2 inches so I will sit somewhere between a 2500 and a power wagon when I get my rubber on.
