Default autospring leveling kit

i just got my kit in the mail. i ordered it off ebay. i ordered the 2.5 inch and the ones they sent are only 1.5 inches thick. is that right? should i bother sending them back or will it not make much of a difference?

thanks, the rims are 20" and the tires are 275/60 r20 according to the web page i went to it says they are 33" tall i havent measured them myself though. i could have went bigger i think, but didnt want to lose too much power.(or money). also im going to try and get some better pics, i havent had a chance to take it to a level spot and get pics of it yet.

Thanks for the reply. Here is a pic of the new truck. Definately needs teh leveling kit. Not sure if I should go 2" or 2.5" in the front. I plan on getting the factory 20" rims and ditch these smaller ones.

Other future upgrade: Chrome grill, Nerf side bars and bull push bar for front with 2 lights, tool box and flowmaster Super 44's

I will attach pics once completed.

I hate to sell my old 97. Shes been a great truck, never left me anywhere other than a dead battery in over 10 years. I put 160000 miles and never had any problems.

Any ideas on the 2" or 2.5" for the future 20" upgrade oem rims?

Thanks.........Steve

Nice truck it depends what you want to do and what tire size you want to put on it 2" leveling kit = 33" tires 2.5" = 35's also if you were planning on putting anything on the front such as bull bars go with 2.5"

Default autospring

Where can I purchase the Auto Spring leveling kit 2.5"? I searched the internet but noticed the manufacturer of Auto spring does not have an online checkout. Does anyone know where to purchase this leveling kit?

Question 2.5" Leveling Kit

Doesn't the upper control arm just look a little to DANGEROUSLY close to the coil spring? I slapped in on in about two hours (beer breaks), but then took it off. I tried researching and reading the forums. But man! It just doesn't look right. Any suggestions?
