Too all with 2" leveling kit

[daytripper63]

Do I need to adjust down headlights and fog lights with 2" leveling install?

Truck is looking great now and headlights seam to be o. k. But then again I am not the car in front of me...

What have you done if anything?

I never adjusted mine in the past,but I was always getting the high beam flash from on comming traffic.

I adjusted mine after some people got upset. Not a major job. A freind left his as is but again he never drives after dark or in the rain. Rob

The T Rex springs are about 2 1/2" and I had to re-adjust mine because I couldnt see anything close on low beam.

How about adjusting driving lamps/fog lamps

Is their an adjuster like headlights?

I didn't adjust mine initially after the 2" spacer kit but noticed the lights kinda high. With the horse trailer hooked up and the truck squatted the lights were totally at the moon (what a wimpy truck for a 1 ton) so I adjusted them down - much nicer now. Easy adjust with torx driver.



Can't believe how free the first 3" of travel are in the the rear... gonna add air bags but gripes me that a truck comes this way.

Is your truck SRW cause my DRW only drops about 1-1/2 maybe 2" with 5er on back and 1900lb pin wt.

I've got the SRW. Squats it right down to the overloads - about 3".



My 98. 5 dually barely moves with the trailer hooked up... think they are catering to the "around town grocery getting crowd" nowadays with these pickups.

I have noticed with the longer spring used on 3rd gen SRW drop alot

The DRW must use different spring cause mine barely drops

My headlights are adjusted almost all the way down. Left the fog lights alone, I don't think you can adjust them anyhow.

Different strokes for different folks... ... ... I love the ride of my 3500 DRW LB. It rides better than my 01' ever did, and handles the 2500# of pin weight of my fiver like it it's not there... ... ... Sarge

I personally think you should. I did mine a couple days after I did the spring install and it actually made the vision better. I used the Hobes(sp) headlight aligning tool at work and I was quite supprised at how much they were out.
