Lift Kit 

The lift kit protects the truck's lower bumper from being scratched all over from the ground below. This is a huge benefit because a number of newer truck models are built lower to the ground so that the car and truck comparison is a bit more seamless. 

The lift kit also protects the truck for rough terrain in the event you may go off of the road. You will be able to evade all of the oncoming rocks or even mud. You will also be able to dodge any deeper snow during or after a storm. The height from the ground is instrumental in allowing you to avoid damage. 

A lift kit will also provide you with better vision on the road along with easier access to the bottom of your vehicle. 

Leveling

One of the premiere benefits of leveling is that it allows for the utilization of larger tires. This means that your tires will avoid hitting the fender or bumper of the truck. 

If you have an attachment such as a plow, your truck can have the tendency to lower down a bit because of the existing weight. Leveling keeps your truck in check in this instance so that you remain at a consistent height which also protects you from damaging the bottom of it. 

Leveling will even out your truck which translates into a safer ride for you along with an optimally safe driving environment for others as well.
