I had a 1.5" leveling kit on my truck. Had to pull it off.

Starting in '13, the front upper control arms changed design, probably to accomodate the air suspension. If you level the front, the upper ball joint doesn't have enough angular travel when the suspension is in droop, and it starts to jack over to one side, ovaling out the hole in the arm. To level it the upper arm needs to be replaced.

Mevotech makes one that'll work. The arms are about $80 for the pair plus an alignment. It's on the radar, just mixed in with a lot of other things that I'd rather do first, like the heads and cam swap for my Z.
