EXACTLY.......all the trucks look great , i think we are on to something about Crew ,Club,and engine.different springs for the front, jbgp1200..do you have the 5.7 in yours ??? Here is mine with the 1.5's and this is how it looks any where I park it, that is almost perfectly level...this is not level for me look at the gap on the front wheels and the rear wheels

 

Yeah I realize the level on the bed was a bit much and I know depending on the slope how that can make a difference. It just made me laugh that it was so darn close being the truck is not perfectly level. So I took a pic. But it looks pretty darn close and you maybe be right, on the quad cab.

I only have the 4.7 in mine. wonder what the weight diff is on the 4.7 vs the 5.7?

The reality is would love an extra inch of height but n one seems to make a 2.5" front 3/4" rear kit for the 2WD.

 

I just measured my truck and from the top of the tire to the fender in the rear I got 7.25" and in the front I got 5.25". From the center of the rim to the top of the fender I got 23" in the rear and 21" in the front. These measurements are just approximents but they are close. So for me I still have a way's to go. However I do not plan on doing anything else to the truck (as far as leveling goes). My truck is an ST Quad Cab 2wd with the 4.7. Pretty basic but that is what I love about it.

 

Now we are on to something, I have the 5.7 which is heavier, so I need more lift, and it is a Crew, just dont know why jb's would need so much, BUT, the 3rd Gens, had the same problem they told me that earlier years used different spacers than later years,some of the 3rd gens with a 3 inch spacer put them perfect, and later years it was always a 2.5 ,I noticed. i will have the 2.5's soon and will take pictures of it and measure.If the ride is crap they will come out...also new shocks are needed
PDavis----dont take offense, but in your pictures it REALLY doesnt look like the 1.5's are in there , that is crazy , where did you get them?, do you have a part number or a brand?
JB- can you measure the height on the wheel well opening from the edge of the tire up to the fender while it sits in the garage ,on the front and the rear ,thanks

 

I am using the Daystar 1.5 and you can't really see them on my truck either. I was amazed how they dis-appeared once I put everything back together. I think with my truck being an ST I have different springs up front. I know before I had a huge drop up front, the truck didn't even level when I hooked up my 4000lb boat!

 

I have those, and you can see mine sticking out at the top of the coil bucket........
I will try and get a picture of it. Daystar DOES make a one inch spacer ,that looks almost like it...I will get my part number off of the box.

it is daystar KC09103BK

 

I ordered mine from Moe's and I sure hope he didn't sen me the 1" kit. If he did I know who paying to have the the new one installed! I guess I will be looking at my box tonight.

 

sorry ..........just wanted to make sure .....and did you use the factory OEM rubber spring insulator or not.

 

I couldn't use the factory insulator because it was the same shape as the daystar spacer. They would not have worked together. The daystar kit is nothing more then the factory design but thicker for the lift.

 

Hey Guys,

I went home and measured the height from the tire to the wheel well. I measured 5 3/4" on the front and 6 1/2" on the back. I also measured from the fender to the center of the wheel I measured 22" on the Front and 22 3/4" on the rear. So it does look like I'm 3/4 out of level.

You would not know it looking at it.
