I'll never level any vehicle I own again.

They ride bad, wear front end parts prematurely, and cause horrible cv angles. For me it will be lifts set with level cv's or nothing.

X2. Or do a reverse level with some drop shackles.

I like the fact GM has a rake to their trucks. Get them loaded down and they acually sit level unlike Fords.

But ya really you need a lift or to lower the rear to do it right. A little cranking of the tbars isn't bad, but it wears out faster and rides worse.

Levelled my lml 2.5” Used the rancho kit with longer shocks and built my own diff drop spacers. Rides like stock. Angle on bj’s and tie rods isn’t any worse than my 6” fabtech in my old lbz.
