probably a dumb question

I read somewhere in the forum that leveling kits always raise the front -- which makes sense if you use these trucks for their intended function -- hauling weight, work, etc. But, I plan to use a 2500HD Cummins for light towing and light hauling (I know, I just want a diesel), is it possible to get close to level by lowering the rear somewhat while still having reasonable hauling capacity? I really don't want the truck any higher than it already is -- and I don't want to make any significant mods to it.

There are either 2 or 3 spacers that are part of your spring pack. You could remove these and it would drop the rear about an inch without affecting hauling capability.

Perfect! Thank you, what are the disadvantages to doing this -- just some reduced rear tire and ground clearance? I plan to keep stock tire/wheel size anyway. thks again, Ed

Did you do this, and did it work?

I've been thinking of lowering the rear of my '04. I pull a 5th wheel, and the front of the trailer is just a tad high.

So, did you pull the spacers, and did it work?

Not sure if anyone else has tried this --- I haven't ordered my truck yet.
