I haven't installed it yet, it looks pretty straightforward.
You get U-bolts and five 3/8X2 1/2 fillers, so you could probably raise it less or the full 2".

Well, finally installed the leveling kit. It was more work than I expected. The left side took about four hours, then the right side took about two. I had to use two floor jacks with extensions because of the height of the springs, then had to cut bolts out. I didn't remove the shock on the left side until I had everything loose, had to drill out the sway bar bracket for the bigger dia. shackle bolts. I did all of this under the truck on the left side and removed everything to work on the rt. side.
Looks a lot better, now to get it aligned.
P.S. Give yourself plenty of room between the spring and axle so you can leave the assembly together with the bolt through the center when you insert it.
