Modifying trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs can be thrilling, especially for those new to the game. One popular entry-level modification is the installation of a leveling kit. But what does it do, and more importantly, how much does it cost to level a truck? This detailed guide will provide you with all the answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you take a side view of your stock truck, you’ll likely notice that the front sits slightly lower than the rear. This design, known as a rake, is intentional. Engineers design vehicles with a certain amount of rake to accommodate heavy loads. Lifting the rear of the vehicle will sit level when pulling or carrying a heavy load, and it also helps prevent bottoming out. Leveling kits counteract this rake, achieving a more level stance between the front and rear of the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Leveling kits work by raising the front of the vehicle so it sits even with the rear. This is achieved by adding a spacer to the strut and the vehicle chassis. The spacer’s lift brings the front up, level with the rear. Leveling kits do this without needing to change springs or other suspension components. Most leveling kits will include the spacers and required hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
