ya do a search on it here. some guys have taken the level kit off because it caused problems with control of the vehicle if it hit a bump.

you might need the factory stud plate for the top shock mount. stock shocks will work with a leveling kit so they may be stock still

I didnt put mine on. you will need that stud plate though. I got it from them after they installed the kit in case I ever wanted to go back to stock. I will post a pic of it for you.
