Default Potential Stupid Question: 2Dr leveling kit?

Is there a 2dr leveling kit, and is it even needed?

The 4 doors have an obvious rake, but do the 2drs have a smaller rake that can be fixed? I've seen in other posts where 2dr owners talk about rake, so I thought maybe there is?

IF there IS such a thing, would it fit with a 2-2.5" bb, or would that push it past the 3" mark, thereby requiring new control arms and all of the other extensions?

Still learning!

i dunno, the whole notion of what is level is purely subjective. i personally feel that a vehicle with a rake IS level but, that's just me. yes, a 4-door has a more pronounced rake due to its length but if you ask me, the 2-door has little to no visible rake. if you really feel the need to level it, just try to figure how much you want to level it by and get a pair of front coil spacers to do the job. you can buy spacers in 1/2", 3/4", 1.5", 1.75" and 2.5"

2" too

I threw Daystar 1.75" spacers up front to level it out and it ended up sitting a little higher in the front. I then decided to get the .75" spacers for the rear and it leveled it nicely.
