Can I get another inch or tow of lift from new springs?
Can I get another inch or tow of lift from new springs?
I have a daystar 2.5" level kit and my truck is still not level. How can I get another inch or two out of my front end? Would taller springs be possible? Are 4wd springs taller? Could I swap for those? I saw in another post about snow plow springs being stiffer for the weight. Would those not compress as much on my truck with just the stock bumper and give me a little lift?
Thanks

Maybe your aftermarket shocks are the wrong size, because your truck should be level if you have a 2.5" lift. If the shocks are to short they will not allow the truck to rebound all the way.. Do you have extra blocks or anything in the rear.. I have 2.5" spacer up front and a 1" block in the rear and my truck is still level.
Thank you for the response.
I got my spacers and shocks together at 4wheelparts.com local store in Plano TX. The store manager ordered them for me and he seemed to really know his stuff so I have to assume that is right. but I guess that is always a possibility.
My theory is that my 2wd just rides more rake than a 4wd. I make this assumption supported with some evidence.... The CST 6.5" lift kit for the 2wd megacab has 3.5" Spindles with 3" spacers in the front. This is only accompanied by 3" blocks for the rear SO I assume the front is naturally 3.5" lower than the rear.
