I'm new to the forum here so i guess this is a good place to start my thread. I'm more indecisive than anything so a bunch of stuff may change but I got some ideas lines up for now. I'll update the thread with pics later on.

I want to keep the truck just leveled and it already has an rc 2" kit, idk if i want to keep that and add a tgc .5" spacer or remove it and add a 2.5 tgc. In the rear i want to remove the block and put in an add a leaf. Is this a bad idea?

Also any idea why the fender height would measure half an inch higher on one side in the front?

I measure from top of the tire to the fender. Some people do ground to the fender. I'm sure there's some technically perfect way to do it. Just make sure its absolutely flat ground.

Removing the block will drop it 1" and putting in an AAL will get you probably 1.5-2" but I will ride worse, I'd personally just swap the block for a 2" block same stance factory ride. Truck looks now.

you don't think the aal would add any payload capacity or anything like that? Or not enough to justify the rougher ride? I can deal with the rougher ride if that's the case

Who put the level on? Springs seated properly? That's a pretty decent difference for it to be something small.

Big 10 tires and accessories. I didn't trust myself to do it at first. Idk about all that but I had it put 6k miles after i got it so it's been on there for at least 30k miles.

Im not sure what your next steps could be. Maybe take it to a different shop and have them just look over it

so do you think I should just replace the rc 2 with a tgc 2.5 or still go with the .5 spacer and have a shop look at it
My 99 Chevy SCSB leans to the drivers side by half an inch. It's something referred to as the Chevy lean, most all of em do it.

I'm running 6500k HIDs in my protectors with JDM Astar 3157 projector lens switchbacks and they match almost perfectly. Also have LED high beams that match

I don't think so BDS is parent company of McG iirc but either brand is good just a warning those don't drop everything down so it's like a big ass leveling kit with a differential drop
