Re: Daystar 1” Leveling Kit – Install Instructions

Thanks for the part # on the ball joint boot. I'll have to pick one up. The spacer was 1", I got closer to 1.5" of lift, not just an 1".

Spacers are okay. They are not ideal in the sense that the OEM suspension is designed for a highway vehicle and not with offroading in mind. I couldn't get over the factory nose dive, it drove me nuts. You will still have this with any spacers.

Sorry layonnn, I couldn't understand you. Would it affect the car negatively, or would be dangerous on-road and off-road?

What are the merits and demerits of installing spacers instead of exchaning the spring coils and shocks.

Thanks layonnn

Re: Daystar 1” Leveling Kit – Install Instructions

Question, does anyone know why this kit came with new studs rather then the stud extensions shown on the daystar website?

seems like it would save a ton of work

TIA
Jeff
