I can't find anyone that makes a leveling kit for the 19 2500 that has the factory self leveling rear suspension. I guess the standard kits throws off the sensors and puts up all kinds of codes. Any I go on someone that's making one ?
 
I don’t see a kit yet, but Thuren does have extended sensor links on their website
 
Mine sits about level. Maybe a inch lower in front haven't measured. Also haven't seen any kits for our setup other than the links. Would be interesting to find out. If u do post here
 
im scheduled to have CJC do a 1" lift all the way around with the +1" thuren front springs and the 1" extender for the air ride in the rear at the end of the month. also doing king 2.5s all around. mine's about 3/4" of rake and i think it's perfect angle wise and looks 'level', so just going up the inch to accommodate the better springs and shocks. didn't see anything to raise it past the 1" that thuren does anywhere that i searched.

the impression i got was that if you're wanting to go up very much, you keep away from the air ride so you can do a carli.
 
Will grab some tomorrow. Went straight from cjc to kid soccer practices last night and then had to work all day before the soccer shuttling started back up tonight.

Down and dirty is that it was money well spent.. will include parts list and price with photos.
 
Couple photos from outside the restaurant. The inch matters.

Looks like it's higher in rear. Might of been able to just add the inch to front and establish level looking truck or go with 2" in front. Possibly???? Looks good... More pics with price would be great too thanx..... Looks good.

truck maintains factory stance. 1" higher in the rear. went up 1" with springs in the front and up 1" using a new links to trick the air ride system.

thuren front coils - 350
thuren rear track bar - 380
king 2.5s (tuned to stage2) with external res and stainless steel shafts front/rear - 1125/1115
air ride +1" links - 25
brake line relo bracket - 20
carli front track bar - 435
install - 620


they were ready when i showed up and the truck was done on time as promised. they have the parts in stock. no BS.

i have a feeling i went overboard and spent more on the king 2.5s than i'll ever use off road and that 2.0s wouldve been just fine, but it rides like a new truck. its for sure still not a 1500, but i didn't buy or want a 1500.... i've hit 5 or 6 of the road features around town that were kind of a 'i know this is a 3/4 ton truck, but damn that's harsh.' and they're all considerably less harsh with a more controlled reaction. it just feels 'right.'
 
The rear shocks are tough to get a photo of since they go up into a hole to connect at the top. Parking spot precluded the rear underneath shot, but these give you just of it.

I prefer the look of these without the shell, but the girls love the inflatable bed that fits back there and the LED strips that run down the top of the shell for camping, so aesthetics be damned.

Thinking the low profile prinsu rack they make for the tacos/tundras for on top of the shell since it won't raise the overall height much higher than the sharkfin antenna does and I'm flirting with the 7' overall height. Will need to take a really accurate measurement because if I'm already over 7 (parking garage height of several convenient lots), I'll probably just do Yakima bars...

Thanks for the photo now the question of exactly how high is the highest point??? In know you said maybe 7 but can you measure exact my truck currently berly Fits inside my garage. It would be nice to know it'll still fit after lift
 
I just put the level on my shark fin antenna and it was 83.75"

I,m gonna confirm tomorrow on flat ground with one guy holding the level and one on the tape measure.

Those are 18*9 black rhino warlords with the metric falken at3w that measures out to 34.8 by around 11.5. Dimensions are on their site

Hey how's the lift holding up??? How's it riding still good? Is it more bouncy/bumpy in back with more air in the rear bags? Did u ever get to confirm the overall height with another person helping??.

I have the Thuren extended links for the rear & a 2" coil spacer for the front, they work perfect with no codes
 
Paintcan what's the overall height of your truck? What size tires on it truck as well??


Any pics u can post??
