I bought this 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4 with the 3.0 Duramax, used with less than 10k miles. One thing I noticed when I first saw this AT4 was that it looked leveled (which I really like). Looking at the suspension, I can’t see a spacer (unless I’m missing it) or anything and it all appears stock in the front and back. The front measures 39.5” and the rear is 39.75” (ground to top of wheel well). I took a couple of photos just to get y’all’s opinion to see if y’all think it has a spacer or if the ball joint or cv angles are bad.

Looks good to me. I would recommend a Bilstein upgrade down the road if you'd like. They add about 1/2" front ride height with no other adjustments plus a much better ride than the Rancho's ever dreamed about. But for now, get the feel for the truck. If you don't like something, change it.
 

I appreciate it. The Bilsteins are definitely in the list. I had em on my F150 and they were nice but for right now, the truck feels and rides good. To me, the angles of everything underneath (cv, balljoints) look good but I just wanted a 2nd opinion. Thanks again!
 

After looking at the strut and some other factory AT4s online, I noticed I have this lower strut spacer that I didn’t see on other factory AT4’s. Thoughts?

My truck has that same setup but I bought it used so I can’t say for sure it hasn’t been leveled.
 

Check the rear, more than likely they did a reverse level which is where you move the rear block on top of the composite leaf spring, thus lowering the rear to make it level. Normally the leaf spring would be on top of the block of the rear axle.
 

Just checked, and the block is on the bottom. I’m just kind of torn on whether I need to invest in some new UCA’s if my truck is leveled or not worry about it.
