Installed a set of "add-a-leaf" springs to my front "(2-1/2")" skyjacker lift kit . When I ordered this kit from Skyjacker almost a year ago, it was listed on their web site as a "Complete kit" for an 84 Chevy K30 with a 6.2 diesel & 454 gas motor. However, apparently you will need to also order & install a set of add-a-leafs to the spring pack. When I first installed the kit the truck sat slightly lower in the front. And after about 2 months the springs settled buy about 2". so I made a set of 2" longer shackles to help level it back out. But the springs continued to settle and ended up still 2" lower in the front. When I called and complained, they basically blew me off and told me that they had sense changed their web site and I should have known it would need extra parts ? Buy the way it took them 1 month to get the first kit to me & another month to send the add-a-leafs... In my opinion it would seem they consider or trucks obsolete and therefore don't stock the kits any more. And subsequently the younger generation that work there lack experience with older trucks. In the future I will be dealing with and advising people to use ORD (Off Road Design). As they specialize in 60's- 80"s Chevy 4X4 trucks and their staff answered more of my questions about Skyjacker kits, then Skyjacker could.. LOL!
