Since they're adjustable you can level it or leave the rake. Leveling would be just like adding a 2" spacer to the front of the truck. Here's my truck: I've got a 2" front spacer, 1.5" rear spacer, and 3" leveling kit. I've got a 1" rear rake now but it's hard to tell. There's a thread just below this about leveling and body lift pics!

Thanks for the reply, your truck looks great! What size tire/rims are you running? How is the ride? I hope my truck turns out looking that good!

Thanks man! The ride is a bit stiffer because of the front and rear spacer but still good! I also put in Mevotech UCA'S with the leveling kit. The wheels are stock 20's and the tires are the stock 275/60/20. I'm going to be putting on 35" duratracs with a 1/4" spacer soon though!

The ProComps are what Im running and will net you over 3" of lift. I have a 1.5" rear spring spacer with 1" rake, my CV angles look good and the ride is great and no BL yet..

Thank you. Truck looks awesome. I actually purchased the procomps also with a .75 spacer for the rear and a 1.25 body lift. Sept4 goes to the mechanics. Stoked. Your pictures give me confidence i made the right choice. Thank you for taking time out to post more pictures.:favorites13:

No problem man, what the forum is for! Make sure to post up pics after the BL trying to decide which one to get myself. I want to 1.5 but that 3" is always appealing for that much lift
