Lift & Leveling Kits in Hillsboro, KS
The short answer
A leveling kit raises the front of a pickup so it sits level with the back, and a lift kit raises the whole truck for more ground clearance and room for bigger tires.
Most pickups leave the factory sitting nose-down so the rear does not sag under a load, which is handy on a hay run but not how most folks want their truck to sit parked in town. Or maybe you just need the clearance for a muddy pasture after a spring rain. Moxie installs lift and leveling kits in Hillsboro, then aligns the wheels and checks the front sensors so the truck drives as well as it looks. Bring it in, or we will come and get it.

We start with how you use the truck, not with a catalog. A daily driver that tows on the weekend needs something different from a truck that spends its days off-road, and a taller truck can change how it handles, tows and uses fuel. We install ReadyLIFT leveling kits, Rancho lift kits and Bilstein shocks, and the right shocks keep the ride comfortable afterward.
We tighten every bolt to spec. Each one is set to the specified torque, which is the measured tightness it is meant to hold, because suspension parts that are only nearly tight loosen over time and start to clunk.
We always finish with an alignment. Raising a truck changes the angles of the wheels, so we align it on Hunter alignment equipment every time. Skipping that step is the usual reason a freshly lifted truck pulls to one side or chews through a new set of tires.
We check the electronics before it leaves. We re-aim the headlights, and on newer trucks we check the front camera and radar, which are part of ADAS, the driver-assistance systems behind automatic braking and lane keeping. You see the parts and the price before any work starts.

Lift and leveling kit questions we hear every week
What is the difference between a leveling kit and a lift kit?
A leveling kit raises only the front of the truck so it sits level with the back, usually by a modest amount. A lift kit raises the whole truck, front and rear, for more ground clearance and bigger tires. Leveling is the smaller, simpler job, and it is what most people who just want a level stance are after.
Do I need an alignment after a leveling kit?
You do, and we include it every time. Changing the height of the front suspension changes the angles of the wheels, and without an alignment the truck can pull, wander or wear its tires out early. We align the wheels on Hunter alignment equipment before the truck goes back to you, so it drives straight from day one.
How much does a leveling kit cost to install?
The price depends on your truck, the kit, and whether any worn front-end parts need replacing while the suspension is apart. A leveling kit is a much smaller job than a full lift. Call or text us with your truck's year and model and what you are hoping for, and we will price it before any work starts.
