Default Need Help "Lowering" Rearend of 09 1500 2wd
Just bought a 2009 1500 2wd. The rearend is just a little higher then the front and I would like the truck to be level. What can I do??? I found out that it has the heavy duty suspension. Does that make any difference in what I have to do? Thanks for any info!!!

Look under the rear leaf springs and see if there is a block back there. Should have a 1.25" block. Take it out, easy as pie
