When i first installed the kit, the rear sat lower then the front. I cranked on the keys all the way to where it was hella low in the front. Then re-adjust the front till it was even with the rear. Still bullshittin and havnt re-adjusted the front now that the rear is a little lower (tb springs)

Ok...measured my truck this evening...
- 3/5 delux kit from NorCal...
- I've only driven the truck to the alignment shop then home...50 miles on drop so far...
- Hard as hell to find a flat piece of ground here. The ground sloped down to the driver side a little...so these numbers may be off a little...
- Truck is sitting on 285/40/22 rubber...

Driver Front = 32" 33" = Pass. Front
Driver Rear = 32.5" 33.5 = Pass. Rear

These measurements are with the rubber isolators installed on the rear coils. The driver key bolt is still in the "factory" position. The passenger side key bolt was backed out ~3/4" to get it somewhat level.

How do these numbers look?

285/40/22...I do have the isolators on too...

I'm not bugged by the rake front to back...more so just getting the pass side to get down even with the driver side.
