Where are you guys buying your Auto Spring kit from? The places Im finding are for a 1.5 kit. If anyone has a part number and place to get it from that would be awesome. Thanks

The suspension on the '04-'08 vs. the '09-on, is apples and oranges; you can not make a comparison.

They are not the same component and a different part number with the various mfgs.

Don't get hung up on this 2.5" thing. My '09 leveled out perfectly with the '09, 2" leveling kit that I used.

I measured my truck on a [level] concrete pad and it was exact, front and rear. You can use the search feature, for many other similar comments over the past two years.

I have a 2.5 inch and it sits perfectly level. from looking around on this forum, it seems that 2 inch levels most, but it would not have been enough for mine. i have a 2010 lariat.
