I have a 2.5 leveling kit in my truck and it is about level I want my truck to lean back a little without having to lower the back end, if I get taller coil springs for the front will the truck sit any higher? Or how would I go about making the front end sit higher?

 

Take out your 2.5 spacer and put in a 3... cheaper then getting coil srings.

 

I've heard that 3 inch are bad for the truck

 

yeah most people don't like them, but there are a few that do it. Idk how else you would get more up there then the rear to be honest. take a dozer and set it on the hitch and press it to the ground overnight that's be sure to make the front end higher then the rear! haha just kiddin, dont do that. Im outta idea's tho!

 

fill the box with dirt or take off from red lights real fast jk. I second the 3" level kit. our trucks level kit pretty much just makes the coil spring longer so like Trevcampbell said, your just wasting your money by getting longer coils. you could get stiffer coils and you might gain an inch that way. what about air shocks anyone know if that might work?

 

Bigger coil springs, 3" leveling kit...doesn't matter, it's all the same geometry with the front end. You would need a taller spindle to make it work, which you won't find to do this. Personally I have no idea why you want the *** to sag, it would look absolutely retarded.

 

I thought it was dumb at first to but its popular around where I live and Im starting to take to it

 

put smaller tires in the rear

kind like this, but not exactly....

 

Always go with your first instinct.........



LOL......


Regarding the 3".......


I have had a 3" level on my truck for the last 40,000 miles..... I have 60,000 on it now, at 39,000 miles I had to replace the LH upper and RH lower control arms(ball joints) under warranty...... But I was also running 35's and I'm a extreme driver I beat on my truck......

If you are gonna run close to stock size tires and you don't beat on your truck the 3" level probably won't cause you any issue...... I'm guessing since you want front rake that this is more of a street truck...... you should be good...

Not sure if you can completly remove the rear block, but you could always get a thinner one made... may get you a 1/2"..


Pretty sure they make drop shackles also....... which changes where the leaves are in relation to the frame... which is gonna lower the back end...... but if you want that look...... I think that is really your only option..


Even with the 3" you are gonna gain 1/2" or so........
