Zone and BDS is the same company. Never used that lift but they make a quality product with great support

Has anybody used this kit as I am interested in it since it is a top mount system and may not interfere with the CV as bad? ?

I'm in the fence between this and the Rough Country AT4 leveling kit

I'm actually doing the same thing but seem to be leaning toward the Zone kit as all the spacers are at the top of the strut. The Rough Country kit still uses spacers at the bottom that will put the strut closer to the CV boot.

its a couple of aluminum spacers.....I don't see how they could be all that different from company to company....maybe the type if its lower or upper but really these seem very basic.....

Had the zone level installed this past week and the front is now one inch lower than the rear so right where I wanted it. No problems so far. 35x11.50 ridge grapplers

Looks great! I actually ordered mine on 6/17 but haven't heard anything yet so I guess I am going to have to call to follow-up.

I ended up using the ready lift 1.75” leveling kit. Would recommend since it comes with a better UCA to correct the weird angel most leveling kits cause. Just installed 295/70/18 and will post pics shortly.

FWIW, I installed the Rough Country leveling kit on my 2019 AT4 and there are no clearance issues with the CV boot.  LOTS of clearance.  Make sure you put the bolt heads up when installing the lower strut mount bolts.

I just had the Zone Leveling Kit installed. I also had upper control arms replaced as well. Still on Stock wheels and tires :(

nice! I just ordered the zone 6.5 kit. Just replaced my struts but thinking about replacing my control arms/ball joints and tie rod ends when I do the lift. I just am torn between paying $500 for zone or cognito control arms. Did zone come with the ball joints or did you have to buy that separately also? I just don't see a viable alternative to them besides stock..

    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
