Default Fantastic news!

I was given an extremely generous birthday gift, so this is suddenly possible without even a second thought. I will finally be leveling out my truck! It's a 91 2wd, so she'll finally look right! So what I'm starting this thread for is for a few questions:

1) I'm just looking at leveling springs, how big are those? 1.5 or 2.5 inches? And which brand do you guys reccomend? I want to level it as high as I can without causing problems.

2) Is it possible to do this myself?

3) Do our trucks handle any differently after being leveled?

4) Will you guys post up some pictures of your leveled 2wds (or 4wd if they level out to be the same height i'm shooting for here) on either the stock 235/75/15s or 31x10.50x15, as I'll be upgrading to those down the road.


Truck as it sits now, with the stock tire size. Side steps are gone too

Sure your front shocks aren't just pooched?

I don't know. But I'm looking to fully level the thing out. I want the front wheel well even with the back, and 2wd's don't come that way stock.

Guys, I'm doing a level kit. That's how the truck sits right now, I'm looking for basically 2 inch lift springs for the front.
