Towning with level kit installed question

I'm going to be installing a RC 2" level on my front this weekend and was wondering if this will affect my towing and appreciate any recommendations . I tow a 28' TT, load can be 4k-5k lbs depending. Thanks for any and all help and suggestions.

Doesn't affect a thing for towing. Since the truck will be leveled, the only thing you'll notice is when you put the trailer on the truck, it will appear the rear is sagging more since you don't have the factory rake anymore. Load levelers will help that "look".

 

Enjoy!

Along with your truck looking like it is sagging when your towing, your headlights might be pointed higher than usual. When i leveled my truck i re-aimed my headlights to rectify this issue. other than that there is no real major issue

You might be able to get away with just a weight distribution hitch and it won't sag as much. Or get some air bags on the back.

Should be fine with properly set WD hitch (and sway bar). Front will be higher and angle you sit will make a slight change. Post a pic when done.

This is why I went 1.5" instead of 2". I did 2 on my last truck and anytime you put a trailer on it or anything in the bed with a bit of weight, it always looked squatty. The 1.5" I went with this time (which ended up almost 2" anyways) looks good IMO and the truck should sit good and level with a load (depending on weight and setup)

The 2 inch level kit works perfect for towing and looks great when not towing.I have a WD hitch and it is level when set for towing )

Thanks for all the replies. I have a WD hitch and sway set up so that works for me! I'll try and post up some pics in a few weeks when I pick the TT up to winterize for the season.
