00 Limited Leveling Kit

So back again with beat to death questions..... Its a good one though. So as I posted in the other thread I just bought an 2000 Limited, 209,xxx mi on the clock 4.7 as we all know.

So it has a leveling kit on it, owner before last put it on. However it has the factory sized/ travel shock absorbers in it still. Now do I need to swap them for a longer travel absorber? And if I do, what type(s)/ brand(s) should I be looking at? I am a huge believer in Bilstein shocks.

Not doing any rock climbing, or hard trails. just some mild off road/ field work, might have a genny welder in it from time to time. Mainly to and from work, occasionally have to haul my project car to and from the tuning shop.

As always, pre-emptively thanks

 

My first level kit was bigger springs (maybe just higher rate) on OEM shock. It was a fairy stiff ride. I would recommend a different setup.

 

I should have clarified what type of leveling it. It has the spring perch spacing caps in the front. I dont know what brand as I didnt put it in, nor did those records come with.

 

Sounds like you have a spacer lift. Not uncommon and some would say not ideal.

 

So OME kit then lol. Not ideal means high and right "repairs", right?? lmfao

 

If your shocks dont stick out in funny places, can you even say you have a race truck?



Have you bottomed out (or topped out) yet?
