I just bought my leveling kit and it is a 3" front 2" rear and when i went to put it on the holes on the top of the strut didnt line up at all. What do i need to do to get everything lined up again??

I haven't worked on the suspension in my truck yet, but I wish I could help. When I did the struts in my old stang I just had to move the a-arm around a bit and everything eventually lined right back up.

They should line up... Try turning it so different holes line up with different studs. They only fit one way if I remember installing mine.

Im going to attempt it again on monday because my work schedule is messed up. i work 1A.m. to 3p.m. so when i get home i jsut dont want to deal with it haha. When i tried it the first time i didnt remove the shock from the lower A-arm, but it makes sense so i will let ya'll know how it goes. OP sorry for highjacking your post. I appreciate all the advice
