They shouldn't be able to void your warranty unless they can show that the aftermarket parts added directly caused the failure of whatever is broken. I've been considering leveling my Harley too. Are you changing your wheels and tires?

I didn't think about the rims and tires. I am new to this so any ideas would help. What are planning to do?

Theres a couple of different ways of leveling your truck. You could get a 2.5" front suspension spacer to make it higher in the front. This allows you to clear 35" tires on aftermarket rims. Or you can remove your rear axle block and change your U-Bolts and shocks over to 2wd parts. This lowers the rear for a level but lower look. Ride quality remains the same when you remove your rear blocks but could be affected by the 2.5" spacer if you go that route. Also you stand a chance of wearing out Balljoints and such faster with the spacer.
