hey guys

i was wondering if i could put a leveling kit on my truck if i already have a 3" body lift?

i really dont know how leveling kits work like if there just spacers or what but if they are spacers i didnt know if it would work because the bodylift spacers are already there.

thanks for the help

i think you should be able to add the leveling kit. the body lift just lifted the body off the frame. i'm not too sure what a leveling kit for your year of truck consists of, it might just be a new set of keys to adjust your torsion bars, but not to sure. maybe google "leveling kit" and see what comes up.

thanks

ok i looked it up and for the 97 it shows coil spring spacers..jus two round spacers...where do they go? its not the same place i put the body lift spacers right?

the body mounts should be in different locations. maybe if you crank up your torsion bars a little , this might level the front.

that would work but its 2wd and i read somwhere onhere that 2wd doesnt have torsion bars

your right,i didn't know that you had a 2 by.now i'm unsure. .just checked wifes expedition and it looks like you'll be ok. the body mounts are in front of the a-arms.hopefully someone who knows for sure will help out.

I don't see where you would have any problem. They are 2 different ways of lifting the truck. The spring spacers should mount without any problem.

on a 2wd you need the coil spacers as you have already discovered that you have no torsion bars to crank yourself.

and they will work because your body lift lifted the body from the frame, which does not change the suspension at all.

thanks guys that really helped out...i really want a more leveled look..ive had the lift for a bout a couple moonths and i like it but it just looks like its leaning forward. with a 2wd its really all for looks anyway..i would love to have a 4x4 but i guess ill jus have to work with what i got right now

thanks again
