Does the front end "settle" after a 2" level?

Front end is an 1/8" higher then the back now, really bugging me. Is there any way to lower it 1/2-1" now that it's installed or wait til it settles (that's what the installer said)

Usually. It may not settle at all but I'd say most settle about 1/8" to 1/4" max.

The type of spacer used can make a difference as well as the installation itself.

Will be interested in what others say.

Can't see why it would settle unless you installed new coilovers

Let's just say it doesn't settle, would everything have to come off to lower it by 1/2-1"? (Readylift leveling kit)

Mine has not settled. RC 2" level. You can change or add a block to the back to bring the rear end up. I added a 1" RC block to mine.

I didn't want to go any higher, I just swapped my stock 18's for 20's and they look "smaller" due to the bigger gap/height. Oh well, I guess I might have him change it to a smaller level.
