Making the Front Level with the Rear?

Starting a new thread, cause I acdentally posted in the 3rd gen forum. MY truck currently has a loft on it, It looks like maybe just a 2" lift, was on when I bought it, anyway, The front sits 2" lower than the rear, and I want to level it out. From the looks of it, The rear have 2" block added under the leaf springs, and in the front it looks like a 2 or 3" leveling kit was added above the springs. So I take it using a conventional leveling kit is out of the question, I dont want to remove the rear block and lower the back to level it. What are my options? Will I need new control arms if I make the front any higher? Let me know guys. Thanks

Eric

Taller springs and shocks with longer stroke. Since it is already lifted, probably will need new control arms if you lift it any higher.

Skyjacker D25 springs should get you pretty close. You would need shocks for 4 inches total lift in the front (D25s plus leveling kit already in place) and control arms for a 4 inch lift. Control arms can be bought from many sources.

Are the control arms adjustable at all? or do you need to buy a certain length based on how high your lift is?
