    Welcome to TW. Anything termed a "leveling kit" will involve either coil spacers, which make your ride harsh by preloading the spring on your stock shocks, which are not designed for stiffer springs, or top plate spacers, which can lead to ball joint damage.

    As I noted above, there is no such thing as a good "leveling kit".

    For a decent lift on a budget, check out bilstein 5100 shocks

    5100s set at. 85 would be close to level or 1.75 setting with tsb. Do a search for specifics but its been covered for sure!
