    I ordered a Motofab leveling kit from Amazon, and it didn't mention anything about it not being installed in a Rock Warrior.
    The Motofab website says it won't fit in a Rock Warrior. Will it fit or no? If so is it safe to install or will it damage my truck?

    Welcome from Colorado. First I’ve heard of that kit. I’m sure the experts will chime in soon.

    Post pics of your truck.

    Never heard of motofab but there isnt any difference in suspension components with the RW except the shocks being the yellow, supposedly better offroad bilstein shocks. Guessing its a spacer for the top of the shock. Dont do any offroading or it could lead to a buckled shock.

    So... Would you say Motofab says it's not for Rock Warrior as a precaution, but it will still fit?
    If I install it should I also install a differential drop or any other extras?

    As far as I know, Rock Warrior package and Off-road package have identical suspension. But then again, would you want to buy stuff from a company who doesn't know that? I would recommend Bilstein 5100 instead.

    Differential drop is cheap and is recommended no matter which kit you go with.

    spacer lifts are never a good idea. hurts your ride and puts shocks at increased risk of breaking/buckling. I'd go for a coilover or at the very least, Bilsteins.

    As a visual demonstration of what Law323 is talking about, here is what could happen.

    If you’re set on a cheap lift, I would at least get an in-coil spacer that’s safer.
    @ToyTec Lifts sells it here
