It levels it and makes it look nice. The ride has not changed at all to me. Still rides good.

Might not be much help, but I actually installed my kit this last weekend. I have 2013 crew cab with short bed. The kit leveled my truck perfect and exactly what I was looking for. After an alignment I really haven't been able to tell much of a difference with my ride, pretty much the same for me. Hope that helps, good luck!

I got a 2012 GMC Sierra crewcab short bed and it didn't seem to affect the ride at all. Maintained stock feel. I had a localShop install and align it.

Levels out the body line to look very nice. No change in the comfort of the ride as the suspension remains the original.

I have a 2012 Silverado extra cab and it leveled my truck perfectly. I'm really happy with the way it looks now and the ride is just like it was stock it doesn't change the way it feels at all.

This will level you nicely while maintaining the factory ride. I had mine installed at a garage. Get an alignment and also get your headlights adjusted as well. Enjoy I love my 2014 Silverado leveled.-Buddy Mike

If you have a 1 ton truck like I do, it won't smooth out the ride from the stiff springs. Only changing to softer springs would smooth out the ride, but then you wouldn't have a 1 ton truck anymore. I normally deflate the airbags to 10 lbs. If you had any more pressure in them it would actually make the ride even stiffer. The only thing that can soften the ride without modifying the suspension is to have a load in the bed. If you tow a trailer you will notice the ride is smoothed out. Or throw a few sand bags in the bed and you will notice a somewhat softer ride. I carried sand bags to Colorado to get more traction on the icy roads and i noticed a change.

2010 Silverado LTZ 8 ft. No, I don't think so. I feel this level/lift gave the truck the appearance that it SHOULD have had from the factory.

it will absorb a lot of the road vibrations over the stock dampener. I have them installed on my 2500 ram lifted and oversize tires. greatly took that "truck" feel steering and tamed it down. especially over those road transitions i.e. bridges and uneven lane changes

I have a 2013 Silverado with the short bed. I bought this one that extends to 71. Works great. I contact the seller just to make sure before I bought.

Yes it will. I'd recommend a level or small lift with the lower offset though.

You can raise or lower the ride with this product. I raised my 64 Impala 1 inch with the screw in metal spacers. They might be a bit simpler to install.

I have a 2014 sierra crew cab standard bed and my bed is 6 foot 6 inches. This will not fit my truck but should fit a short bed if its around 5 ft 8 inches. You should measure your bed before you buy.

I leveled my 2013 ram 1500 with the bilstien 5100s and then installed the airlift 100s and it does indeed keep the truck level, but it depends on how much weight your loading into it

It will if you order the one made specifically for the 2014 Silverado short bed.

Yes, the helper springs raised the rear of my 2002 2wd Dakota about 3-4 inches when empty. I also have Monroe Overload shocks and when I load my 1000 lb camper the truck sits almost exactly level. I drove almost 12,000 miles on a trip around the country and everything worked great.

It will give a gain in power to help with towing you may see an increase in mpg as long as driving style stays the same it dose have a programs from towing on it or like me a cold air intake and from what I can tell is it has helped with going up will not shifting as much and still getting 19 unloaded and about 15 with the bed full of wood

I would think for a short bed you need a hitch that slides. If not I think the trailer will hit your cab when you turn.

No. They don't raise the level of your vehicle. They offer a zero to four inch drop. Meaning zero being stock stance, and four being a very aggressive stance. Low and mean

I think so...it depends on how much you torque on the adjustment nuts. I think it raised the "empty" height of my 2011 F150's bed using factory torque specs for towing heavy loads.
