There are two types of Lift Kits: Body Lift Kit and Suspension Lift Kit. <\/p>\n<p>A <strong>Body Lift Kit<\/strong> will raise your vehicle&#8217;s ride height between 1-3 inches, without altering the original suspension geometry of your vehicle; this is accomplished by lifting the body of the vehicle and installing blocks or spacers between the body and frame.<\/p>\n<p>A <strong>Suspension Lift Kit<\/strong> is designed to increase a vehicle&#8217;s ground clearance and articulation. There are a few different types of Suspension Lift Kits, each one with varying benefits to best suit your vehicle&#8217;s needs. Spring Over Axle Suspension, Torsion Keys, Shackle Reverse, Suspension Lift Kits, Shackle Suspension Lift Kits and Lifted Spring Suspension Kits. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-7 ml-auto\">\n<h2 id=\"levelingkit\"class=\"title\">What is a Leveling Kit?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-5\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/graphics\/blog-what-is-a-leveling-kit.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"what is a leveling kit\"\/>\n    <\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-7\">\n<p>A <strong>Leveling Kit<\/strong> is basically a suspension lift for the front of your vehicle to fix the rake. Most trucks\/SUV&#8217;s come from the factory with a &#8216;raked&#8217; stance, this just means that the rear of the truck sits slightly higher than the front, which helps prevent bottoming out in the rear with heavy loads. A Leveling Kit can also offset the weight of a heavy winch or plow in the front of your vehicle; giving you added height and larger turning radius. Leveling Kits also come in a variety, Leaf Spring Blocks, Strut Extensions, and Coil Spacers <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\" id=\"comparison\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 text-center\">\n<h2 id=\"usedfor\"class=\"title\">What Does a Lift Kit &#038; Leveling Kit Do?<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-lg-10 col-md-10 ml-auto mr-auto\">\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table table-striped\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th><b>KITS<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Asthetics<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Increased Ground Clearance<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Increased Ride Hight<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Better Articulation<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Bigger Tires<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Fix &#8216;Rake&#8217;<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Wheel Well Space<\/b><\/th>\n<th><b>Add a Winch\/Plow<\/b><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><i>Lift Kit<\/i><\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2796;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2796;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2796;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><i>Leveling Kit<\/i><\/td>\n<td>&#x2796;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2796;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<td>&#x2714;&#xfe0f;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-11 mx-auto\">\n<h2 id=\"FAQ\"class=\"title\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-5  order-sm-2\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/graphics\/shock-install.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"added ground clearance\"\/><\/p>\n<h4><i>Before &#038; After Leveling Kit<\/i><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/graphics\/mudding-jeep.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"raked jeep\"\/><\/p>\n<h4><i>Lifted Jeep W\/ Reverse Rake<\/i><\/h4>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-7  order-sm-1\">\n<h3 id=\"GroundClearance\">Does a Lift or Leveling Kit affect Ground Clearance?<\/h3>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re off-roading, going down the road or going through the pasture with a heavy load, a higher clearance will allow you to haul and tow without damaging your suspension, drivetrain, and other components under your vehicle. <\/p>\n<p>*With <strong>Suspension lifts<\/strong> the sky is the limit, you can obtain the most clearance with these.<br \/>\n\t\t*A <strong>Leveling Kit<\/strong> will give you about 3 inches of added ground clearance in the front of your vehicle.<br \/>\n\t\t*A <strong>Body Lift<\/strong> only raises your ride height and doesn&#8217;t directly affect ground clearance.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Cost\">How much do Lift\/Leveling Kits Cost?<\/h3>\n<p>A <strong>Body Lift<\/strong> and a <strong>Leveling Kit<\/strong> allow you to keep all stock parts and are fairly simple to install, keeping overall costs down.

How big, you ask? Well that all depends on just how high you choose to lift your vehicle, but we can give you a pretty good idea:<\/p>\n<p>A 2&#8243; <strong>Body Lift or Leveling Kit<\/strong> will typically give you enough room for 3-4&#8243; increase in tire size and a 3&#8243; Body Lift could give you enough room for up to 35&#8243; tires! If your suspension lift is tall enough, then you can just go down your local tire shop and order the biggest set of tires they make. We&#8217;re talking monster truck big. <\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Stackable\">Can you Install a Lift and Leveling Kit together?<\/h3>\n<p>Installing a <strong>Leveling Kit<\/strong> is a prime time to add a lift to your vehicle and many <strong>Body Lift Kits<\/strong> include components to level the front as well as lift the rear suspension. Another popular form of lifting is to combine Leveling Kit and Body Kit; this gives you the benefits of a Suspension Lift without having to actually alter your suspension, and at a fraction of the cost.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Warranty\">Will adding a Lift\/Leveling Kit affect my Warranty?<\/h3>\n<p>Suspension Lifts may void your vehicle&#8217;s warranty, depending on where you live and how high you choose to go. A Leveling Kit more than likely won&#8217;t affect your warranty, but it never hurts to check your warranty information before installing any body modification. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-5  order-sm-2 pt-5\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/graphics\/suspension-lift-installation.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"suspension lift installation\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-7  order-sm-1\">\n<h3 id=\"Ride\">Will adding a Lift or Leveling Kit affect my Ride?<\/h3>\n<p>In most cases yes, they will affect your ride, sometimes that&#8217;s a good thing and sometimes it makes you second guess how high you really want to go. For instance, Some <strong>Suspension Lifts<\/strong> will provide your vehicle with better articulation, traction, and more camber. However, the higher you lift your vehicle the higher its center of gravity gets. A higher center of gravity increases your vehicle&#8217;s chance of body roll and could cause loss of traction during turns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Body lifts<\/strong> may not offer any performance advantages but their fiberglass-reinforced nylon body blocks maintain a smooth and quiet ride. A <strong>Leveling Kit<\/strong> can improve ride quality\/ comfort and can give your vehicle excellent articulation.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"Wear\">Does adding a Lift or Leveling Kit affect my Suspension Wear?<\/h3>\n<p>Depending on how high you lift your vehicle you may be replacing suspension components like ball joints sooner than anticipated due to the added stress the lift will put on them (This is primarily an issue with Suspension Lifts). <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n<h2 id=\"end\"class=\"title\">Parting Knowledge<\/h2>\n<p>Just to recap a <\/strong>Lift Kit<\/strong> such as a <strong>Body Lift<\/strong> or a <strong>Suspension Lift<\/strong> is an after-market body modification designed to raise your vehicles ride height and possibly it&rsquo;s ground Clearance. And a <strong>Leveling Kit<\/strong> is basically a suspension lift for the front of your vehicle designed to fix the rake. Each of these kits can be used for different things from better articulation to bigger tires to increased ground clearance.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re looking to give your Jeep that little extra edge out on the road, wanting to upgrade your rock crawler to take on some next level trails, or just want to level out your work truck, we hope we&#8217;ve equipped you with the knowledge needed to make the choice between a lift kit or a leveling kit, or at least given you some nice pictures to look at.<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn more about body lifts and suspension lifts?
