Leveling Kit

Installed a 2.5" tuff country spring pack several weeks ago. Before install my measurements from the ground to the fender well were 38.75" and after install 42.5". I wonder how much it will settle though? Here are some before and and after pics. Also, I have sand bags in the bed right now so it may not look leveled but it is.

I believe it was like $280 and that included the shipping. Most of the other places that sold this set up were charging another 30-$70 for shipping. If you pm I might be able to find the company that I bought it from. The nice thing about it was I didn't need to replace the shocks (which I probably should do soon) and it came with a track bar relocating bracket. Most of the other companies with a similar set up didn't have a track bar relocating bracket. Here is a picture of the kit uninstalled.

ffadragon, I don't think the ride changed one bit compared to stock. It's been stiff since the day I bought it, but it almost seems to turn better then when it was stock (probably just me). I have no complaints with this kit, especially for the price.

I just put a 2" Superlift leveling kit on mine and I could swear the turning radius is tighter as well.

How long did it take to install, and were there any special tools needed other than your common hand tools? Pullers, presses, etc...?
