Default Question about leveling kits

I just joined and was wondering if they make leveling kits for my '05 3500 dually? Or do I have to get a whole lift kit for it?

They should just make a leveling kit. I would recommend to get the kit with new springs insted of spacer blocks. When you get the kit though, you'll need new shocks on all four corners. I got my kit from skyjacker

How much did your kit and shocks run you?

I paid $420 for all the parts. Installed them myself, took a little over 2hrs. I still haven't centered my steering wheel though. Its about 1-2 splines off.

I have a 2003 dodge dually and was wandering is a 2" leveling kit enough to make it level? I have airlift airbags in the rear that were installed prior to purchase.

it won't.

it does look kinda dumb though when you have a lot of weight in the bed cause it becomes nose high rather than leveling out.

my truck is leveled and I have no problems hauling goose neck trailers...
