Default Which leveling kit?????

I was wondering if anyone has installed a 3" kit, and if so had any issues with the cv axles due to the angle. Same for anyone with a 2.5" kit.

not to offend you in any way, but your best bet is to try using the search button located in the upper left blue section of the page, there are many of us who have all used leveling kits and your best bet would just be to read and research the different brands and sizes. Most threads have pictures of other users trucks on them as well.

Well thank you for your advice, however, I had searched prior threads, with no luck as to any issues with cv angles, that is why this was posted. With that said, do you have a leveling kit, and if so how much did the angle of your cv change if any. Again thanks for you rprior advice.

I do have the autosprings 2.5" leveling kit. The change was very minimal and I am personally not worried about it. I think any wear will be somewhat normal and nothing increased.

I have seen in other posts about them being offset, is that a required detail of the spacers, i have seen some on ebay without mention of being offset.

all I know is mine bolted right on top of the existing spring assembly. 3 bolts and it was done. I'm not an expert on them by any means hopefully someone else will chime in soon and help ya out more, i just know people on here get frustrated easily on this subject because it is brought up so often. Just trying to help ya out the best I can without being pissy like some others will be about it

Well once again thank you, I'm sure seeing repeated posts can be frustrating, however these were questions I had not seen anyone ask prior. Thanks again for your information.
