XK Commander 2"leveling kit, help!!!!

[Commando]

I recently installed a 2" leveling kit on the front of my 2006 jeep commander to make it match the rear. I didn't take measurements pre- installation figuring it looked about 2" lower than the rear and it would be even as the kit stated. After installation I noticed that the front is now 1 1/4" higher than rear now?!?!? Has anyone had experience with these "leveling" kits or can anyone measure the height difference from rear to front? Your help is greatly appreciated.

What leveling kit did you use?

One from ebay

was it something like this:
Jeep 2" Front Coil Spacers Body Suspension Leveling Lift Kit Steel | eBay



I was hoping to see if it was just spacers, or if there was more to it.

That's exactly what it is. It's spares that bolt on top of your strut making it 2" taller. However, Im thinking it lifted mine more that's why Im trying to find the stock height front and back from another commander owner.

I got the same one.. Now I need to put the 1" for the back... But did you notice the upper control arm after you installed the spacers? Looks like we need a 2" lift spindles or a new control arm?

I think you just discovered you only needed a 1" lift on your Commander. "eyeing it" isn't always a good idea.
