My 2" level didn't make my truck level lol

big_country33 · July 16, 2012

I have a nnbs 07 silverado with TGC 2" level kit. I want to put a 3" body lift on BC it keeps factory ride and I can keep my rims and tires I have. The body lift won't make it level still yet so what's my best option to level it before the BL ? It's off by 3/4 of an inch and I don't like it lol

Is the front or rear higher? Either way you can fix that by changing your rear blocks.

Sorry - my bad, the front is lower. It still has rake

Go smaller rear blocks.

Is this an upper or lowere spacer? Either way, you can add a 1/2 level from TGC in addition to what you have. I wouldn't lower your rear end when the ultimate goal is to up.

i have the lower from TGC but its only the 1" block which is suppose to raise your truck 2", i think it did in the beginning but maybe stuff has settled. If i stack on that 1/2 level how bad would my angles be? or am i still within range?

i dont want to lower the rear of my truck. the goal is to go higher and level

I'm not sure if anyone makes a 1/2" - 1" upper spacer, but that is what you would want. Either way, leveling kits are so cheap you could always just buy their 2.5" leveling kit and scrap what you have. As far as angles, if you only acheived 1.25" of lift with what you've got then your angles could handle another inch easily.

TGC has a 1" kit that has two small stackable spacers to achieve 1" , wonder if I buy that kit and just use 1 of those little spacers on top of what I already have, would u trust it? Or if I'm gunna do something to add does it have to be on top now bc 1" is max u can go on bottom ???

You don't want to stack two spacers on the bottom, look for a .5 upper strut spacer(donut shape). http://fatbobsgarage...CFU2R7Qod3QLpYg these guys can help you out. They were real helpful when I was looking for a .5 lower strut spacer, cost less than $30 too.

big_country33 · July 17, 2012

Putting an upper .5" on the upper, is it still increasing the cv angles ?

How hard are they to install, I'm not looking to

Go cheap, I just want te easiest route.

blackout07 · July 17, 2012

Yes it will still increase angle but as long as you don't exceed 2.5" total you'll be fine. DO NOT stack leveling kits directly on top of one another. It is okay however, to have a spacer under the strut and one on top of the strut.

So I've been talking to fat bobs garage and they have the .5" spacer I need for the top of my strut at a fairly cheap price . I've went ahead and ordered it.

When it comes to the install, with the 2" lower strut spacer already installed does it make my life harder ? Or is it still the same ?

What r some pointers for install ?

Do yo uhave a part number for the 1/2" top spacer from FAt Bob's? I want a little more lift out of the front of my truck. Seeing I already have the RC 2" kit on the bottom, I need the top spacer. Would appreciate the part number, can't find it alone on their site.

big_country33 · July 25, 2012

Anyone chime in on the install ?

And there is no part number ... It's not on website either .... Contacted them directly

blackout07 · July 25, 2012

Install will be pretty straightforward. You will most likely have to remove upper BJs from the spindle to drop the LCQfar enough. Then you should be able to slide the spacer in. A large pry bar is always a must.
