What does 'shot peened' mean for this leaf spring kit?

Shot peening is a process where small, hard steel pellets are fired at high velocity against the metal. This strengthens the steel and helps it resist cracking and fatigue, making the leaf springs more durable.

How much lift can I expect from this add-a-leaf kit?

The amount of lift can vary depending on your specific vehicle's original suspension setup and how the leaf springs settle. This kit is designed to provide a modest lift, typically around 1-2 inches, along with added strength.

Does this kit come with everything needed for installation?

The kit includes the add-a-leaf springs and tie bolts. You may need additional tools and hardware depending on your vehicle's specific leaf spring configuration, so it's always a good idea to consult your vehicle's service manual or a professional mechanic.
