Leveling my '11 4WD

I did a search on this site, and while there were tons of suggestions/opinions/observations, I have decided to go with spacers up front to level my '11.

Please, no flames about going with Bill Steins...I dont want to spend that much, and never go off-road.

Measuring the top of the tire, to the bottom of the fender line, it looks like it needs to come up 2". Does that seem right? Is that a good way to measure for "levelness"?

And assuming 2" is correct, would I have to worry about brake lines? Or anything else for that matter?

Thanks!

 

It's a routine deal to raise 'em 2" to 2-1/2" with top plate spacers and NOTHING else. If you raise one farther than that, other forces may come in to play. But with what you described, just get spacers and let it ride!

 

Outstanding, thanks Bluegrass!

Anybody have a favorite 2" spacer? I mean, if thats all they do, I would presume a less expensive set would work just as well as expensive ones, yes?

Or maybe there is a brand I should avoid for what ever reason?

 

2" will give you a little bro lean
