    Would a 3 inch spacer on the front struts be to much stress on the axles?

    Kind of confused on the title as 3 inches up front is far from " Leveling the Front Only. " I would say research, research and then research some more. There is a lot to know when lifting especially at the 3 inch level. New UCA's come into play etc.

    Two inch spacers that go on the struts to level the truck out seem most common. Mine is looking like I may need three inches though. After looking at purchasing the three inch spacers I watch a video and the guy was talking about having to put spacers at the Differential dropping it down for less stress on axles. I just wanting the truck to level out in the front
