how much of a diffence is there between a 2 in or a 2.5 in leveling kit ? does anyone have pictures of their truck with a 2 in and a 2.5 in ? looking to put one on but found out bilstein makes a shock that will lift the front 2 in. have 80k miles on stock shocks so going to replace when i level the truck and trying to decide whether to do the space then shocks or just the shocks.

I installed the Bilsteins on my truck at the top lift setting which actually ended up being just over 2 inches. I would recommend doing the lift and shocks at the same time...whether you go with the bilsteins or new shocks with blocks so that you don't have to take it all apart and get an alignment twice.

Do a search on here for Bilstein 5100’s and you should come up with some pics. I posted my truck pic on a thread after I leveled it

i think im gona go with the bilstein leveling shocks that way i can raise or lower truck if need be and still have a great shock.
