    Installed a leveling kit.......

    I did that to mine. But I went with a 3" that put my front end 1" lower than the back. As for the kit, why spend the money on something you can make. I used 3" square tube and brace the inside with pipe nipples got new shackles 3" longer. I did have to a bracket for the axial sway bar.

    Injector cup problem
