    So is westcott the only level/lift around that’s compatible with the Avs system? They suck at fulfilling orders and would rather not wait 6 months for a kit.

    yes, i believe so atm. tension is getting pretty high. saw westcott blow up on someone on fb when that person mentioned the delay. that person could have taken it more private or said it differently but i wasn't expecting that type of response from the vendor. they're clearly spread thin and some stress and/or frustration going on.

    and just to be clear westcott designs, i'm not complaining and am patiently waiting if you're reading this. lol. take care of yourselves over there.

    Yeah I get their frustration but seems to be brought on by themselves to be honest.. I know no one can predict the success of a product but shit I’d have as many shifts working as possible and the shop doing their anodizing would be dropped! Id source the work out to as many shops as needed in order to fulfill these orders since it’s only a matter of time till someone else develops a product and capitalizes on their inabilities.

    Pro comp has a 3/1 level kit that has AVS relocation bracket. Not as nice as Westcott preload collar though.

    The relocation bracket from instruction manual.

    It's pretty simple. Be honest with what the real wait times are and people wouldn't be complaining when they're weeks and weeks over...

    My concern/ shops concern is the front shocks there is a wire on the top that I assume controls the stiffness for lack of better terms.

    Just don’t call it a spacer lift :crapstorm:

    …and full disclosure have one on my truck so not criticizing but the frustration on both sides are very real.

    Hmm. I can see that being an issue too, if there isn't enough slack for the wiring with the spacer installed. Westcott has the spacer on top too with their, but it's only like 1" thick.

    I thought the westcott level used a spacer at the bottom of the spring?

    It's a combo of a preload collar on bottom for 2" lift, and a 1" spacer on top of the strut... At least this is the combo for the 3/1 "lift"... The AVS lift is only 2" up front i think, so maybe its just the preload collar and no spacer on top... I'm not 100%

    The wire for the avs shocks is not a problem. I did a rc 1.75in spacer and adjusted the rear air bag lever...Zero issues with avs

    That’s what I was wondering! Seems like even rough country doesn’t think it’ll work per their site but I swear I’ve seen a bunch of Avs equipped trucks on here using the Rc spacer. How do you like the ride after lifting?
