Leveling Kit installed
Hi guys, its been a long time since I have posted. I am due for tires and want to go 37's so I installed the Truxx leveling kit last night. Install took about 2 hrs with a friend helping. Anyway, my front tires squeal initially under hard acceleration. It has now gone away for the most part. Anyone else have this happend???
I love the stance of the truck now and should have done this years ago... I also put in the 1.25 spacers in the rear...

Well, you need to get the alignment done after installing the kit. It sounds like you probably have some toe issues. I would get it done soon, because if it is bad enough to make your tires squeal, then it will cause some bad wear pretty fast.

What mechanical skill level do you need to install both ends?

Re: Leveling Kit installed
Prob a 2 ot of 10.
About 3 bolts on each side. I recommend buying the tool for the torsion keys, which is basically a c-clamp, but safer...
