MARKY MARK

I installed the Skyjacker D25's in March. Front sits about 1" higher than the back. I thought after a few thousand miles, it would level out. But it did not. What can I do to add roughly an inch to the back to level it out? I don't want to put add-a-leaves in because I think it will make it too stiff. Any ideas? Bigger blocks?

dodgeram, how much do those bad boys cost? If alot, will a taller block work?

BAD HABIT

I have 2" kit on front of my truck. Front looked higher than back. Way cool from the old school. When I was growing up thats the way a 4x4 was supposed to look. I installed a teigen or lonestar full replacement front bumper. Both names are the same product. $650.00 Ranchhand cost $900.00 Now the truck sits down in the front. [undecided] But the bumper looks mean. ;D

when I checked a few months back I was told 900 CDN for the pair ............should be about 500-600 usd.........<br><br>

MARKY MARK

Too much for me. Anybody have any other ideas? Taller blocks?

You can go with an add-a-leaf, but a long leaf.<br><br>The short leafs will stiffen up the ride, the long leafs will not affect the ride very much.<br><br>I have a short leaf with my 4 1/2&quot; skyjacker, and the ride is a bit stiff till I put some weight in the bed.<br><br><br>phox

If you have a 2500 go to a auto parts store and get 1 ton front springs with the 2&quot; level kit and then buy a short leaf for the rear and you will be dead even. It looks bad [cen].<br><br>SD03

Anybody know if I can use taller blocks?

question for you guys i have a 97 dodge cummins ext cab and i bought a used lift and all it came with was the coils, control arms, control arm relocation brackets, and a single leaf for the rear, my question is what am i missing, also what skyjacker rear springs do i go with it is a 4.5 lift with 3 inch spacers up front thanks any help is appriciated ......moneypit

You will need to deal with the trackbar.
My Skyjacker 4.5 came with a relocation bracket for it.
You will need that, or a longer or adjustable trackbar.

You might need longer U bolts for the rear springs, mine came with them,
but I'm not positive it needed them.
Mine also came with a wedge for the rear block to point the pinion at the transfer case
(angled the rear diff up a bit).

Mine has a single add-a-leaf and it sits very level now.
Thinking of adding another to get the rear back up, just not as much as it was stock.

Is it a Tuff Country lift?
There's is the only one I know of that uses spacers for the front instead of higher springs.

Rancho, Daystar and ProComp all use coil spacers. <br><br>Marky Mark, don't stick another block in the back. Stacking blocks is BAD JUJU. If it's a 2500 4X4 (I didn't look) it already has a 4&quot; block. Any more block will just result in bad axle wrap. The L O N G add-a-leaf is probably your best bet, just make sure bforehand that your U bolts are long enough.

MARKY MARK

Thanks all. Cowhand &amp; phox_mulder, I will look into the longer add-a-leaf you two suggested. Where are places to get them?

I dont know maps very well so I couldnt tell you which store but 4wheelparts carry them. 1800-284-9840 is the main number.
