What height are your front bilstein 5100 set at? 2.1? Or 2.8?

You must have your front struts set for leveling previous to the lift. I am willing to bet this is not a Zone issue and its an installer issue. What front struts do you have right now? I see you mention fox shocks but if that is the ones that come with the Zone lift they are only for the rear. They dont offer zone/fox struts.

They did a copy and paste on the description. There are 2 height options for the 6” lift that’s where the description came from.

He ordered the 4” kit. Not the 6”. I’m still pretty sure he’s running the bilstein 5100 up front anyways which explains the height difference.

Obviously LOL. It all starts when you buy a kit from a wheel place to start the confusion then you bring it to a place that has zero clue. The only logical explanation is that he brought his truck in with a leveling kit and the installer couldn’t take 5 minutes to ask google or call zone. In the instructions it only shows examples of the oem struts so that is the first red flag.

The zone kit does not replace the front struts. Only the rear shocks. Do me a favor and go take a look at them or have the shop send you a picture of the front struts.

Sorry I Have been doing a lot of traveling for work. But just wanted to provide a update. It was the adjustable Bilstiens on the front were rusted and locked at the maxed out position. ( two years on the truck and 30k miles on them.). Anyways after putting new front shocks on it it sets level and I’m very happy with it.
