Just so happen to have another non-leveled Rebel at work to park next to. Both are 19 coil sprung rebels. His truck was always about 1/4" taller in the front than mine for some reason (probably tire tread mine are more worn),
But you get the idea for anyone who searches in the future and wants to see a comparison.
As a review the instructions are very good, i did not remove the calipers or even the axle nut and was able to squeeze it in there not too difficult. Took me a solid 3.5-4hrs with air tools. Ride quality i feel is honestly better than stock, the new control arms are much more solid feeling that the crappy polymer/aluminum ones. You can feel it more solid in everything from taking bumps to quick turns, whole front end feels more solid now.
I had the truck aligned to factory .05 degree toe specs for a non-lifted coil sprung truck and rides excellent. Does not seem to be any hit to mpg more than .1-.2mpg as it seems identical to before. Truck still has about 1/2-3/4" rake front to back, on my particular truck I would probably have done a 2.5" but all trucks seem to be different and this works for now.
Thanks
