Unhappy why do 2" level kits look diff hights on diff trucks

why is it that a 2" level will look like its not as high on one truck as to another with the same kit? im stuck trying to decide on a kit. i looked at AS,tuffcountry,zone,top gun and hellbent steel. i dont care if the nose is slightly higher as long as its not lower,i want to run 33 with my stock aluminum 20s. with no rubbing on anything

also how bad would a 2.5" stress my suspension parts. i been beating myself up for 4 days now please

What's the difference from the top of ur tire to the middle of ur fender? Mine was only two inches so I got the AS 2" because I don't need the 2.5 I don't want the front higher than the back. I should be putting them as well as 34's within te next few weeks so keep an eye out for pics. I have an 07 4x4 supercab btw

The 04-05 model has more of a factory rake than the later models, so a 2" level kit on a 2004 might look lower than on a 2007. Is that what you are asking?

BTW. I have a 2007 with a 2" AS level kit. I have 305/65R18 BFGoodrich AT on the factory FX4 wheels. That tire is 33.7" tall, and 12.2" wide.
