    Hello,
    I just upgraded from the more basic rough country kit to the vertex shocks front and rear but for some reason the front seems to be sitting higher then the rear, did anyone have this issue when installing this kit and had to adjust it? If so how did you go about doing so?

    I have the same setup. I installed 2' blocks in the rear and it was almost level. The rear vertex shocks are long travel, so the next issue I had was the shocks bottoming out before the bump stops hit the frame.
    I ended up installing rear leaf springs with 3" lift rather than going with taller blocks. Hope this helps.

    I also have the rear leaf springs. But for some reason the front is sitting higher.

    Would you be able to get measurements for me from center of wheel/cap to where the fender starts. Both front and back?
