    The afe rear leveling arms say in the description they are to be used with the front leveling kit. It is not on their website for purchase. I reached out asking about the front and I got an email saying they are available to ship now. I still don't see them on their website though. I am curious if this will be a valid substitute for the westcott leveling kit. At least more available.

    Well I have the rough country 1.75 level which is all I need and I’ve adjusted the stock control levers and it’s still a little lower in the back. That’s why I was wondering if it’ll raise more then the stock ones allow

    The website states the lever arm adds a 1.625 inch lift. So I would say it would be what you need.

    I have something similar. Of course you can get an inch lift in the rear by adjusting the stock arm so the nut is at the bottom. The change with these arms is the small D shape eyelet is rotated slightly compared to the stock arm, so the airbags are tricked into thinking there's a load and causes them to inflate. With the arms I received, its about 1.75-2" lift in the rear.

    No I got mine from Westcott. No need to jack up and is a single nut, so 2 mins each side.

    Does anyone know why/how these are better than the OEM ones? I've searched, but the description on their site says "...1.625in lift in the rear.."

    Just wondering why these would be better because I adjusted the OEM ones and got a similar lift?

    They allow for more travel than that factory arms. The AFE ones are the SS ones with longer travel in the correct direction.
