Which leveling kit is better?
 
Hey guys, it's been a long time since I don't post anything but I want to replace my stock tires and it's time to level my H3, hope you can help me choose the best leveling kit. Is there one that you guys have installed and can recommend? do you know the difference between these:

I have the leveling kit from trail duty. Its basically made up of bigger bump stops and extended bilstein 5100 shocks. You use your stock keys to level the truck. But with other kit that include leveling keys also include shock mount extension. Those kits you will experience the front dipping under hard breaking. With the trail duty kit the bigger bump stop prevents that under hard breaking plus the extended shock is all one piece, there no worries about extensions breaking over time.. Just my opinion though :clapping:

Get the kit from Trail Duty. Crank your torsion bars until your level, just under 24 in. from hub center to lip of front fender, add the bumpstops and change out your shocks.

Hey guys, thanks for your recommendation, I will buy the blistein shocks and bump stops... do you know if there is any difference between the cognito version and the trail duty version of the shocks?
