RE: Front Leveling Kit
I installed the Lorenz 5100 Bilstein Suspension. I tell you what a difference to stock and my 2" coil spacer level kit. The ride on and offroad is not rough and absorbs bumps. It is the same suspension as Carli Starter Suspension and KORE Recon Suspension. Better handling also going offroad. The suspension includes: (2) 2" front coils, (2) steering linkage, (2) rear mini leaf pack and front and rear Bilstein Shocks. You still tow OEM recommendation.

Not really w/ stock tires & wheels. Normally people put a level kit on for bigger tires. The stock tires will look small on the truck in the front end. I went 285's and no loss in mileage. If you put on 35" tires you will lose 1-2 mpg on city driving, but reverse on highway driving because it lowers your rpm's at higher speed and you gain.

i have the hell bent steel leveling kit no probs the nuts that came with the kit were pretty cheesy so i bought some grade 8 nuts and some large ( wide not thick) as big as i could get in that size and that would fit properly on the spring perch. i have stock shocks no problems no leaks and i have jumped my truck on several occasions and its all fine! theres a set of train tracks on my way home from work that i have been known to get a good foot or two of air!!! she takes it like its a pebble in the middle of the road.

RE: Front Leveling Kit
I went to install my hellbent kit and I got the shocks out and the coil springs out, but I couldnt get the coil spring and spacer in on the passenger side. The driver side went in fine. Anyone else have this problem. I will probably go rent a coil spring compressor in the morning unless anyone knows any tricks. Any ideas?
