Yeah I had gotten my 2.5" from HBS and it was awesome for the year I ran it. I purchased a Daystar 1" to add on top of my 6" BDS that I just installed but since it has the screw-on-top-bolts it didnt end up fitting on the new strut bolts that the BDS kit came with (too small to screw on). I was like "yeah, that figures the bolts arent the same size". So I just ordered a 1.5" AutoSpring kit and am waiting to put that on.

I am just going to run through every brand of leveling kit and see which one I like better...haha.. The Daystar kit seems fine though..it is obviously different than the AS and HBS since it's polyurethane or whatever but it still does the same concept.

I gotta get rid of this 1" Daystar kit now since I gave the 2.5" HBS to my friend for helping me install the lift.

This is in the How-To-Section on the forum on the very top of the page.

They still think it is yours?? HAHA. Yeah, bunch of retards if they think its any form of a raptor..haha. Then again I am not surprised since we were offered a beer by the shop owner while my truck was up on the alignment lift...Ha.Atleast they do good alignment work. My tires are still attached a-ok with no screwy tire wear. I wonder how much the alignment will be changed when we put the 1.5" AS level in....Probably just need to unscrew the inner tie-rod a little to fix the toe.

How bad was your alignment off when you put the 3" level in? you remember?
