Thanks. From what I know all I need to level are the front shocks. Which part number are those?

2015 silverado 2 inch shackles in the rear 2.5 leveling get kit in the front

So you dropped it 2" in the rear and lifted it 2.5" in the front? Why?

Because that's what I wanted. My truck is not a 4x4 so I was not going to level the front past the 39 inches and have it look like a 4x4 when I know it's not. If I'd gotten a 4x4 then I would of just lifted the front.

That makes no sense, your truck just looks broken that nose high

That's okay if it doesn't make sense to you there's a lot of trucks that don't look right to me but to each their own. I'm not making payments on their trucks.

I simply think there is a misunderstanding. The terminology you are using sounds like you lowered the back of your truck 2" and raised the front 2.5". Is this what you meant to say?

Yeah that's what I did. The truck has a squat it just depends how the picture is taken that makes it look really squatted or very little

OK. I am also curious as to why you'd choose this look. I read your earlier posts and I understand that this is the way you want it to look. A truck that is lowered has a street cruiser appeal. A truck that has a rake looks ready for hauling. A level truck looks aggressive. A truck that is squatted looks compromised or that it is too heavily loaded. This is not a criticism, I am just very interested!

Here's another picture. As to why well I'm from California and here it's a style. What works for us might not work for others and what works for others might now work for us.

    • It seems fine because it pulls everything out of a hot engine. I’m not going to worry about a thimble full with 5K oil changes with synthetic oil. Every other oil change is at Honda they pull the plug. I watch them through the process. It turns out going to Honda what amounts to their normal oil change intervals.
    • I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!
    • I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be. 
    • I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!
    • I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.
