TGCZ 2.5" level under strut

[scz71864]

anything 2.5 and over is bad for you CVs

I have not seen any bottom spacers that are over 1". Most leveling kits that are over 2" (Readylift 2.25", CCM 2.5", TGC 2.5") all utilize a top spacer or a combination of top and bottom spacers

i have a 2.5" in mine (over the top of the strut though) and so far its fine. your ride is going to be a lot tighter. Its almost as rough riding as my t/a with stiffer suspension parts. Although you're putting a block under the strut you're essentially extending the strut beyond its OEM resting point for its life, so i've heard the struts may go quicker as well as all the front end components.

and yes they do make a 3" block, and from what ive heard, it takes no time to trash all the front end parts

Coworker of mine has the rc 2.5 kit in his 08 ecsb sierra and the angles are fine. Not to mention he let me drive it around the block when I finished putting it in (first time ever inside an nnbs ) and it rode like a car on 285 60r18 terra graps.

hmmm....i wonder what it could be then. i have a crew cab short bed not a z71 pack. I put the 2.5" leveling kit on, took it for a spin and could feel the suspension being tighter. once i put on my KM2's then it got a bit rougher too cuz of the stronger sidewalls. I'm not complaining, my second car ever was a 87 t/a (which i still have) and that has a rough ride! this truck is a little stiffer than stock but just not the cadillac it used to be lol

Most of it is probably the terra graps. Plus like I said it was my first time in an nnbs so maybe what I think is a smooth ride is rough to y'all after all I am riding around on 305 buck shots as a comparison
