Re: What is Level? 1987 Suburban
This is one thing about these trucks and the earlier generation that always bugs me once you start messing with suspension. Anything other than stock and you really start noticing visually that the rear wheel well opening is slightly lower than the front. Some like to level the truck (as in, the rocker is true level) and some like to match ground to fender distance front and back (which gives it a slight rake). I prefer the matched look since level makes it appear to squat even though it isn't, especially on really low trucks. In the end, though, its just a matter of personal preference. I have even seen a few trucks where the wheel wells were modified so they were the same height front/rear when the truck was level.
