Default Worried i didnt install my leveling kit right.
It looks like there is no difference than before on the side i installed it on. Its DEFINITELY NOT level with the rear.

to get the effect of the leveling, you need an alignment.

I was hoping someone would say that, i just dont get how the kit doesnt lift it 2.5" without the alignment, but oh well, if it works then ok.

Well when u read any instructions or other posts about leveling kits, it always says you will get the true effect of the lift after u align it. I'm not sure for certain tho about ur problem. Best of luck!!

It does look kind of low to me (compared to mine), but I can't imagine what you could have screwed up.
