Can I use my level kit along with my new 6 inch leaf springs or not?

I have a 2003 with a level kit on the front now

I am ordering new 6 inch leaf springs

Can I use the new 6 inch springs with my level kit or not?

Is it safe or will it mess something up?

Thanks

What "type" of leveling kit do you have currently... hangers, add-a-leaf, or mini-spring pack?

If you want 8" of lift, I would order the 8" leaf springs and sell your leveling kit. The price difference between the 6" and 8" leaf springs can't be significant. However, you will avoid any issues by installing the 8" leaf springs.

if your leveling kit uses a add-a-leaf for the front its unlikely it'll re-arch a fresh 6" lifted spring pack..
