I thought the same thing, I even called the supplier and asked about it. When you set it down it will be fine. It should be even better once you get your alignment.

You guys are awesome. Thanks for the quick response. Well, from reading the forums I did discover the the NEW leveling kit has the offset. Funny thing is that I recently bought my kit and I never did see the offset one and it never dawned on me that it could be a problem. Anyhow...... I did install it, but the upper control arm was just about resting on the coil spring. Hell no , I didn't want to drive around like that or even risk it. All I did was lift the truck with the jack but the coil just didn't want to compress. I'm just gunna go for it. If I my truck then I'll just slap a suspension lift on it.
