I think I have a leveling kit on my 08 Tahoe but not sure. Any insight is helpful, thanks in advance

Sure looks like it has a kit. Cant tell if there's a spacer on to of that strut or not. I don't see out blatantly. Maybe a spacer under the strut? @iamdub

I agree with Nate. It looks really level, even for a Z71 but the top of the coil in the frame pocket looks to be sitting in the factory location and those strut studs appear to be factory.

Snap a pic of the bottom of the strut where it bolts to the lower control arm.

I spy a 2" leveling spacer.

Where the bottom of the strut (red "shock absorber" part) is bolted to the lower control arm with those two bolts, there is a black squared-"C"/trapezoid-shaped piece between the cross bar of the strut and the control arm. It's about 1" thick, meaning it's a 2" lift spacer.

It looks like a kit such as this:

awesome! yeah I knew it had to have something not stock because like you said earlier, its really level even for a z71 and there's a sticker in the glove box from rough country suspension so I knew it was something from them. I just didn't know what. Thanks
