Question Front End Sag with Front-end replacement

I replaced my front bumper with a Maverick Front End a year ago. I think I have lost about 1/2" in height in the front end. I was contemplating a leveling kit, but I fear the death wobble I have been hearing about. Has anyone gone to a leveling kit with an aftermarket front-end replacement? Any problems?

Thanks

Gordonville

ive got the same maverick front end as you and will be putting on the D25 superlift coils which gives about 2.5" of lift. i will let you know how it does. i am also having some custom lower control arms built to accomodate the lift.

Do it...you only hear from the select few that have issues. I personally know several with spacer level kits that have ZERO problems. The happy majority never post...just the complaining few!

Check the pictures in my gallery. I've been running the toughcountry frontend replacement with the KORE springs and Fox shocks for about 6 months now, and no change at all.
I have their heavy duty diesel coils. Much better than any other spring out there. The ride is superb. The frontend is only lifted 2-2.5 inches. truck has just a slight rake.

Well worth the expense, they sell a leveling kit which contains the coils, longer bump stops and Bilstein 5100's valved for their specs.
