Description

Daystar was the first to enter the Leveling Kit market in 1995. Though there have been many companies that have entered the market since, Daystar's Leveling Kits offer many advantages that the others can not claim:

  • No Metal-On-Metal Contact - Daystar uses Polyurethane material in its Leveling Kits for a reason: It's an insulator. It absorbs the Noise, Vibration, and Harmonics (NVH) that come from the suspension and avoids transmitting them to the passenger compartment. All competitors use steel or aluminum in their Leveling Kits. If you were to take apart any factory suspension, you are going to find rubber, polyurethane, and often both in a typical suspension. These pieces are there for a reason; they absorb the NVH. Sure, steel makes a great hammer, but would you want to ride on it?
  • Lifetime Warranty - All of Daystar's Leveling Kits are backed by a Lifetime Warranty. In the unlikely event you experience a problem with a Daystar product, we'll take care of it.
  • Made in the U.S.A. - All of our leveling kits are manufactured at our plant located in Phoenix, Arizona. In-house manufacturing ensures a level of quality control that no one else can match....and we have the ISO9001 certification to prove it.
  • Top-Mount Easy-Install Design - Most late-model vehicles have gone to a strut type of front suspension. Most of Daystar's strut applications are a Top-Mount design, meaning that our components bolt to the top of the factory strut assembly. This type of leveling kit does not preload the factory coil spring, so factory ride quality is maintained, and installation requires only simple hand tools.
  • Daystar Leveling Kits work within the factory suspension design, meaning that we work within the factory's design parameters to achieve an increase in ride height that levels the stance of the vehicle. Because we work within the factory's design, there are not a bunch additional modifications involved. Everything needed is included in the kit; there's everything you need and nothing you don't. If there are extra items required, such as longer shocks, it's clearly stated in the application description.

Torsion bar applications require their own unique approach to leveling the stance of the vehicle. With torsion bar applications, we supply new forged torsion keys that meet or exceed factory specifications. These torsion keys have been re-indexed to increase ride height up to 2" and level the stance of the vehicle. In select applications, extended shock brackets are also included.

Daystar Leveling Kits include only front lift components to level the stance of the vehicle. We also offer Budget Boost kits, which provide a mild increase in ride height and are more economically priced than our Leveling Kits. Since our start with Leveling Kits in 1995 we've used our expertise to develop over 300 applications that span all of the popular trucks and SUVs...do your homework and you'll see that we've done ours!

Bought for a 98 Cummins that had 326k brought the ride height up and no issues with front end. Easy to put together in a few hours

Screwed up the whole front end! 98-02 cummins
Kevin (Texas) | March 13th, 2017
Wanted a little bit of height to the truck for some bigger wheels and tires. I didn't think putting these on would make me have to rebuild my front end. I put them on and it actually lifted the truck 2.5" and now it has a little lean towards the back. The problem is that the coils are bowing out, the upper control arm is being pulled so far down that the upper ball joint is passing through the knuckle and then hitting the bump stop. So every time I hit a bump the upper ball joint hits the bump stop, and screwing up the ball joint. And it can't be aligned since the ball joint is sitting on the bump stop. Because of this I'm having to rebuild the front end. I wouldn't have put this on my truck if I had known that it would give me so many issues. Leave it stock or deal with the issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is not clear how you state wether I need shocks or not. do I need shocks for a 2004 2500 2 WD?

Yes, shocks are required.

Do i need shocks on a 94 2500 2WD?

Because you will be lifting the front end 2 inches above stock ride height, you will be required to run a longer shock absorber. This ensures the suspension will have the proper amount of up and down travel. The stock shock absorber will not allow the suspension to "droop" or travel down which will cause a stiff ride and eventually damage the shock.

You can use any shock for your specific application that lists it will fit with a 2" lift in the front. Follow this link for an example:

Remember, shock absorbers are sold individually. You will require a quantity of 2 to replace both front shock absorbers.


Do I need to buy shocks if I buy this for my 2001 Ram 2500 2wd ?

The Daystar KC09100BK 2" Comfort Ride Leveling Kit requires shocks.
