Hey Guys,
Well ended up going with the Rough Country 2.5" Preload spacer kit to level my truck. Install went great even tho I hate messing with Strut Coil Compressors. My only complaint would be getting the top nut off the strut if you didn't have the proper tools lol. This was 1 of those times I'm glad I bought my Craftsmen Max Access Thru head Ratchet set so that I could put that on the nut, And the Smaller socket on a 1/4" drive Ratchet to prevent the strut rod from spinning. Other than the Rough Country Instructions having a lot of the wrong socket sizes listed, It wasn't bad! The ride is a little stiffer which I like so it turned out well for me. I installed the Rear 1" spacers as well but ended up taking them off as it looked nose heavy again. That was a waste of an hour lol!
