AS 2.5" leveling kit installed!

Hey guys I just finished installing my autospring leveling kit. It took me 2hrs for one side and 1/2hr for the other side. Its amazing what a little bit of exp. can do to speed things up. lol!

I will post pics tomorrow when I have some daylight.

Heres a tip for anyone installing this kit:
Only jack up one side at a time. I put both sides in the air and it made the first side much more difficult.

peace out gangstas

Looks good. I used the the same thread for my install. It really is as easy as it seems.

zig, is your truck a 4wd? how much did you pay for your leveling kit? No rubbing with 35's? I have a 2wd 2003, but I want the same look you've got. I bought my truck w/ a spindle lift and don't like how the front wheels and tires sit so far out. Thanks

Mine is a 2wd and those are 35's on there mounted on 18" stock wheels. We put them on there yesterday to see if these would fit and they do but there is rubbing on the lower control arm at full lock. These would be good for driving around town but I wouldn't take them off the road too much. With a wider offset wheel they may not rub there but you may have to do some trimming on the lower valance. Not sure how the setup would work on a 2003 since it's a different body style.

I do have some more pics in my gallery if you're interested.
