I just got this kit and the rear sits high, is there anyway to adjust this? Has anyone else had this problem?

the rear will sit high for a while and then it will settle down a little lower. it will never get as low as it was with air suspension. this is a plus because you will never bottom out and never have a problem again. very satisfied with the product. it will outlive the car itself

We have not had any issues with the ride height for this conversion as we have sold many without issues. Being that they are metal coil springs, they will settle in a week. Also, when comparing to the old air suspension ride height, over time the rear will not sit as high as it was from the factory due to leaks and wear of the seals/rubber components on the OE air strut.

My car sat high but lowered some after breaking the new shocks in. I also have 20x10 inch wheels on the rear so the extra space helped.

Try changing angle of windshield .I had same problem on first ride so I gave it a little tilt and works great now

I can't find a way to adjust the bonnet so it goes down. I compensate by sitting on a pillow so I sit taller.

You should have instructions. It can be adjusted. See web site for details.

Loosen bolts on side & adjust w/ screwdriver in front of chain. Hope this helps.

Because the rear before u put the lift kit is already an inch higher than the front. With the lift kit it lifts it up evenly.

Have the same problem with mine. I agree with the others....still like the seat. Perhaps we should contact the company and they will modify the design.

No you don't... But I recommend that you have a front end alignment after installing kit. Good luck.

Try removing one of the bars inserted into the side rails to make it shorter. That worked for us.

My local bike shop ( River City Bike ) adjusted the brakes and it helped a lot. The rims being painted doesn't help. But the adjustment was enough to be acceptable. You just can't use too much rear brake. Hope this helps!

It's personal preference, I would set it normal height at first and if you find that it's too low to pedal efficiently then raise it slightly to account for the sag.

I installed this kit over the summer, and it does not appear to level the truck out, the lift blocks maintain the stock rake to the front. So now I am thinking about buying coil overs for the front (lift springs and shocks)

He is right!! The front did come up higher than the rear. After a few months of driving the front did settle down to a more even height from the rear. I really like the shocks..nice ride now but I did have to get my front end realigned because the camber changed considerably. My truck is a 2000 Toyota prerunner 2x4.

Adjust the trucks, it will make it a lot better! I had the same issue. if you don't know how to do this look it up on YouTube there are several tutorials on how. Good luck :)

Yes! I had the same exact one! It's a very tight squeeze. I had to stick my hand in the housing part to adjust the angled bolt. It will seem like it won't fit on top, but To get the main housing over the throttle body you have to kinda rotate it and go from the right side. You'll get it eventually

Have you tried the gas lift to adjust the height, up and down? That's the only way I know if you have assembled it correctly.

Did you take the blac caps off the stem. If you assembled them with them on it will prevent them from adjusting correctly.
