Finished my lift (issues

[toeheadskater]

I just finished installing my lift and I have a few questions. After finishing installing my 3" front spacers and 2.5" rear spacers along with a 1" diff drop, I have a couple questions. I have quite the rake now as opposed to the nice level look I was expecting. Anyone else have that same issue? Also, when cornering and shifting, sometimes the e-brake light comes on. Common issue?

I would have expected you to have a higher spacer in the rear than the front. Our vehicles sag in the rear over time, and so a thicker spacer is often used to compensate. As for the e-brake, have you checked to make sure the cable isn't stretched tight on something or routed incorrectly? It could just be a loose actuator (light switch) causing the light to come on???

Well it's definitely not lower in the rear. Much higher on fact. I like the raked look. Just doesn't seem like it's any higher then the leveling kit I had in it to begin with in the front. And the e brake never lit up before so it must be the cabke stretched tight

You can buy a bracket from Sonoran Steel for the ebrake. That's what people do when they get a suspension lift. Or just loosen the brake adjuster from the backside and automatic adjust afterward. I would get the bracket.

I'm thinking of using my leveling kit that was originally in the front end along with my lift kit that I just bought. Any thoughts on that? Or perhaps they sent me the wrong amount of lift for the front end? I would really like my truck to be level so that I can run 33's confortably and for other obvious reasons. Any help would be appreciated.

You are low on brake fluid that is why the light is coming on.

That could be. I just bled my brakes. Thanks!
