    Will the nose settle a bit? The person who installed the spacers said it would. The nose is just a fraction higher than I want it.

    Any thoughts? I'm hoping it does settle and if it doesn't I guess I could put billsteins on?

    Take a front and rear height measurement so you have it. Of course the engine is in the front with all that weight, I have seen a few "settle", but NOT by much ... maybe post another side pic with the measurements, but from the angle of your pic it looks like the front could be like an inch higher. A spacer is solid unless you used a compressible rubber block? (Just Kidding) it should not settle.

    I don't think it looks bad OP! I'm sure you were going for a leveled look, so the slight rake is getting on your nerves. Considering your truck is new, it'll take several thousand miles for it to "settle down". You can either remove the spacer, raise the rear, or deal with it. It's not that noticeable, so I'd probably leave it alone if it were me.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    I like it. Bring the back up a touch.
