I installed a 2.5 inch leveling from Rough Country and it still sits a little low in the front end. I haven't installed the rear end spacers because I knew it wouldn't make it level. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get it back to level?

What are your measurements? It looks pretty level in the pic.

I can't remember the measurements off the top of my head but I remember the front end being a little over an inch low after it settled out

Have you had it aligned yet? Think it might drop a little more after alignment. It looks good as is though IMO. I like a little rake so I put 1.75" rear coil spacers on mine.

I like this kit. A friend of mine runs it and is happy with it. My biggest concern is how it will hold up , I drive A LOT on the beach and hope that the parts hold up well! I think it looks fine as is man. Remember, a little take isn't a bad thing, especially if you ever wanna tow anything. Anyone else on here have this leveling kit?

I do pull trailers quite a bit so I guess you are right that a little rake would be good.

Might look into the air assist if you pull trailers frequently. You will go nose high being that level with a decent trailer behind you.
