I added the 2" now it seems that the front is higher than the back.Toe in is off.
Is it because I have not had wheel alignment yet?
And if I'm getting new tires do I do the alignment before or after new tires ?
any help thanks in advance!

I like that! You should take the duallys off and put two more of the round lights.

Looks high in front. What was the measurements before you leveled it?

His driveway has a slight slope to it.

Any change in the way the truck drives or feels over bumps, I am trying to get mine done this week with 2" procomp.

The truck drives the same Factory Ride the front measures 40" from ground to bottom of fender in front and rear is around 38" I guess maybe should have done 1"-1/2 lift. Most threads say 2" to level the truck may be the alignment that is what Auto Spring web site says the truck will sit high without the alignment and create bad tire wear hope they are right don't want to have to do it again!

Unfortunately, I've never seen an alignment drop a front end anything to make a difference in something like this.

Now that you have the leveling kit are you planning on bigger wheels and tires? If so I'd love to know what you are planning on adding I have almost the same setup.
