Hi, I installed a level kit when I added SAS shocks/springs to my BB. the front looks level, maybe even a tad higher than the back. I'd like to add .5-1" to the rear. I want to add a front level kit to the back. I'm wondering if anyone ordered a Trailfx kit. I'd like to know the actual thickness of the spacer. I saw where someone added double spacer plates but had to change the strut mount bolts to longer ones. I don't want to go through that.
Any input appreciated. Thanks.

IMO you'd be better off just replacing the rear with the correct size spacer vs. doubling up with one from the front.

IF...... I was going to run a kit like that, I would go name brand like this kit. But with any of those I'm thinking you'd be lucky to get a half inch lift. And someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you would need to re-clock the strut for it to work properly. So may not end up as easy as it looks.

Another option could be doing a 1" perch collar. But you may end up with more lift than you want. Not sure if someone makes a 3/4-in perch collar but maybe.

That would be too much for the rear if it could be clocked properly. Post a picture of what your Bronco looks like right now if you think the front is too high. Have you given it any time to settle a little, they usually do?

Thanks for the replies. I did another measurement this morning...To the lip of the flairs I got 39 7/8 front and 40 1/8 rear. I'm starting to think it's not worth the hassle of taking it apart again.

I thew a level on the roof for the heck of it an it confirmed I'm very slightly higher in back but I'd like another half inch but again not sure it's worth it.

I’m wondering if you measured the floor slope from axle to axle to compare the readings- not being a jerk about it; I’m a structural forensic engineer…

I was thinking about measuring the height to the frame or running board mounts front and rear.
