Re: Truck Leveling Kits

With 2” lift up front, either spacers or struts, you can squeeze a 33” tire in there. Depending on the tread pattern and if it’s aggressive, you may need to trim a little. No way you’ll get 35” tires in there unless you get a 4-6” lift. For a basic leveling kit, plenty of brands out there that are good.

Use this tire calculator to compare what you have now and what size you want to go to. This will give you overall dimensional change and you can bust out a tape measure and see for yourself what will or won’t work.

Re: Truck Leveling Kits

Im thinking about going with the Bilstein adjustable strut for thre front which says it will lift the front end 2" and the shocks in the rear. I figure with 77K miles on it now its time for some new suspension parts as well. I plan on keeping this truck for years to come. Anyone used these before?

I know this is older but if you haven't done it yet you will be thrilled with the way the Bilstein's ride. I did a truck for my buddy, had the Rough County blocks under the strut, rode like hell compared to the struts from Bilstein, well worth it.
