One thing not right

[TwentyPints]

how do i get the front part of my truck to sit level with the rear. is this normal? or is it cause there's no load in the back?

[Nigel215]

is it a 2wd?

This is normal, so that it won't sag grossly when loaded up. You can buy leveling kits. I'm sure someone on this board can recommend a good one. Personally, I like the leaning look, I think it makes it look aggressive! Of course, I assume you have a 4WD. The 2WD 1500 sits level, or at least much closer to it than the 4x4.

no its a 2wd...you can tell there is a bit of a lean there.. not a huge deal, just like it more level like some i've seen.

[Nigel215]

yea...i have a 2wd and it leans forward a bit. actually, i have a 2000 and my dad has a 2002 and his sits level. I donno wht. Would it have anything to wo with a reg cab and a ect. cab?
I thought a 4wd wouldent do it as much becaus they sit a bit higher that a 2wd.

R u guys talking about the raked look? or Level when looking dead on from the back or front?
All the Silverado's do it. They all are a little lower in the front then in the back.
The problem I have with mine is that it sits down on the driver side just a touch when you look at it from behind. I think I may have a tired spring on the Driver side of my truck but, I'm not sure at this point.

a 2" lowering kit on the rear will level out a 2wd perfectly. East to do and inexpensive.

what about raising the front instead to make it level with the back?

Okay, here's what you need. If you want to level the back of the truck, all you need is a 2" lowering shackle(obviously you need 2, one for each side). Real cheap, you can find em for $40 or cheaper, look on ebay. If you want to raise the front, you can get a set of 2 inch lift springs. Should be had for around $70-$100. Prices on both could be way off. It's been a long while since I've priced anything.

any certain brands i should look for?

[silveradoman]

So why does mine look so level?

[skipr]

On my 1984 C20 is put big block springs in front. And with a 350 cid inr there the heavier duty springs made it sit high in front .

For lift springs I'm not very educated on good/bad brands. As for lowering shackles I would go with DJM.
