Leveling Kit ??

Did anyone measure the Auto Spring 2.5 leveling kit spacers before putting them on? How wide is the actual spacers? 2.5" ? Thanks

The reason I ask is that I just received my 2.5" kit from Top Gun Customz which is like the AS kit. The spacers only measured 1.5" wide and I was wondering how that could lift the front 2.5".

Now that you say that I remember they were 1 1/2" tall. They are not sitting square to the ground once they are installed so it does lift it up the 2 1/2". Put mine on about a week ago and leveled it out just right. No more front end rake. You will need to adjust the toe once they are installed. goldendually

I think the measurment is made at the front bumper. Its a matter of geometry and angles.

eg. if the back tires were glued to the ground and you jacked the middle of the truck 6 inches up, the front of the truck would raise 12 inches.
