I have a 2010 2WD STX. It looks like I have 3 different options for a leveling/lifting kit and all are about the same price. The front will be lifted 3" by the normal spacer that everyone has been using but there are 3 different options to raise the rear 2". They are a shackle, add-a-leaf, or a block. I was looking for opinions on which I should buy based on ease of installation and general performance. Thanks in advance!

 

No experience with the shackle, but I just put a 1.5" block on my truck, took about 15 minutes for me alone. And it is performing great? hard to judge performance on a block kit... lol

 

do some more reading in here and you will think twice about a 3" spacer

 

He is two wheel drive, makes things easier with that 3" spacer

 

Does that mean its ok for a 3" level on 2WD? And by ok I mean no problems down the road lol

 

What are some issues that you have heard of with blocks??

 

Sorry ignore that question i misunderstood what you were talking about at first

 

that isn't completely true... yes you don't have CVs to worry about but you still have CA angles that you have to be worried about

 

Could you please post a link to the discussion on the problem with the 3" rise in the front. I have searched the forum and can't find anything. Thanks!
