Don't do it!!! I added leveling spacers to my new 2017 GMC Sierra and it nearly destroyed my front end. The spacers change the geometry and add serious stress to multiple parts of your suspension. Ended up with nearly $1600 worth of repairs before I removed the spacers. All of this damage before I had 11,000 miles on my truck--nearly all highway and city driving. Very light off-roading. Had to replace two CV axles, control arm and control arm bushings, etc. And, of course, this happened at different times when I was traveling. Left me stranded for a few days. Add in hotel costs. Bottom line, don't take the cheap route. Forget spacers. Spend the extra $ and lift your suspension the right way.
Also you should have showed how to rotate the strut 180
Also a Good idea If you're going to go with the level kit, you should also get the aftermarket upper Arm from rough country. Its specifically designed to make up for that extra length caused by the spacer. It takes pretty much all the added stress off that upper arm ball joint.
2009 Silverado 1500 4x4 the control arm does not come down enough to get the bolt through. There’s a stop that won’t let the control arm come down far enough does not fit!
Instead of trying to turn the bottom of the strut in a vise, I just pulled out both struts at the same time and switched them, passenger and driver side. Am I going to die?
You didn’t follow your own advice of putting the nuts on before cutting the studs.
Couldn't you remove both strut towers then swap what side they where on so you don't have to worry about rotating 180° ?
Ive been debating on installing a 2" spacer or coil overs to level a 2015 silverado. Will spacers cause more problems to my suspension over doing Coil Overs?
If you plan on doing this lift, a coil compressor is an invaluable asset to this job. I don’t work on vehicles often enough to be fast so this took me right over 4 hours to do by myself. I’d say this is more of a 1 wrench install though. One problem I faced was my sway bar on the first side was in its original position so I had to use a pry bar to pull it down a lot, and on the other side it was too far down so I used the pry bar to pull it up.
what's the benefit of using this style leveling kit compared to the blocks that go under the struts? On my 08 I used the blocks under the strut, which were way easier to install than this appears to be, but accomplished the same thing.
This would also work for 2015 Tahoe? Cause if so u convinced me to do it myself by far best vid!!!
I bought this leveling kit, the only thing I didn't like and they didn't think about making the screws that come with the kit a little longer to be able to put the clips of the cables that go over the shock absorber
Thanks brother, just ordered these for my truck
Nice video. Thank you. Very detailed.
Thanks for all this information
Nice job
Very good tool description
Nice vid, thanks for posting. Would you recommend these or rough country 2” level kit that gets mounted between bottom of strut and control arm? Those “C” shaped looking shims. Thanks.
FYI if your having trouble rotating the bottom of the strut I found put 1 ear in the vise with the strut horizontal to the floor apply steady pressure and , with a heat gun warm bracket. When strut is aprox 1/2 way to floor aprox 4o to 45 degrees and stays should be the correct angle
