Different size auto spring ?? Old vs new
'04 FX4 crew.
I have old auto spring level kit 1.5" and one side is broke (top bolt 2 of 3 ) when tried to replace the upper control arm.
I called auto spring and they sent me one new to replace.
Today I got it. And The new one Looks much smaller in height compare to old one
I tried called but they are closed till Monday argh.
Did they change the height of level kit for 1.5" ?
Thanks

I wouldn't be concerned with a few mm difference. It won't make the truck sit noticeably lower on one side.
As far as tire wear, that all depends on your alignment. You could have one side one inch higher than the other and with a proper alignment and normal tire rotations the tires would wear fine.

I had to buy one side level kit to match other side since they sent me free replace.
He recommend do the both due to geometry (spell?) front ends.

Yes, they must have redesigned the whole level spacer line up..
My new 2.5 spacer was a hair shorter than my old one and my ride height went from slightly nose high, to perfectly level.. I believe the steel plating is just thinner gauge in thickness compared to the old..

I have a 2.5" Autospring kit up front and a 1" Autospring kit in the rear of mine (rear kit comes with 3" blocks to replace the stock 2" blocks). Hopefully gonna take it all off this weekend and sell both. I'm going back to stock size tires next Friday and want to put the truck back to stock height as well. The kits have been great, as I installed them back in '07/'08 I believe.
