I posted this in the general Super Duty Forum as well-hope its ok:

Hi all. I recently did a tire swap and went from the factory 18s with 33's on it to the RBP 94R 20s with 35X12.5 tires. I was told they would not rub and of course the do at full right turn only on what appears to be the bumper bracket. So i am looking to lift my truck. The problem is i bought it used (2012 Gasser) and it appears to be some type of level or lift but i am having a hard time with the size. The Front sits 1" taller than the back and the back has the factory 2"block and another 2" block stacked on top of it. The tire guy swears i do not have a level/lift but how could the front sit taller than the back with an additional block added (sagging leafs?)???? It did have different shocks on it than stock but i couldn't tell because the label were worn. Can anyone help? I want to do a 4 inch but if that is only going to give me another 1" clearance than i might as well do the 6 inch lift. Thanks in advance!!!

 

I posted in orher thread also .. Looks stock., 2.5 lvl kit gave alot more room . Still rubs with 35 on drivers side full lock

 

That looks like a stock f250. The rear probably looks like there is 2 separate blocks but one is just a fixed mount. My f250 had a camper pkg and due to the heavier front springs it also sat nose high.

 

Thank you for the help! I am going with a 3 inch lift kit and replacing my stock leafs. I do not want to put huge blocks on and suffer from axle wrap.

 

Can i remove that factory fixed block? Im hoping the name "fixed" is just a name . I want to put the lifted leafs right on the axle.

 

I just got a 2016 F250 and the the rear was almost a half inch taller. I have never seen a stock super duty that sat an inch higher in the front. There is a 1.5" kit that sits under the front coil. That would add up to what you show. That is the level kit I'm going with. It is a ready lift. Also, you can remove the 2" rear block and go with a lifted spring pack. I am most likely going to a 4" block once I add 1.5" to the front.

Ford F250 1.5" Leveling Kit 1.5 inch

 

thanks for the info. I hope to have the kit and springs on soon! Will post pics and updates.

 

Rain Desert-i did not see a spacer or anything. Some have said that it may be the snow plow springs sitting higher because of rear sag. One other thing i just thought of...could it have the RC 1.5 leveling springs on it? It has aftermarket shocks on it plus a 2 inch block on the rear. I am now thinking he may have just installed the taller front spring with new shocks to level it with the rear block and then the springs started to sag? I am just guessing really. My lift goes on Tuesday so i guess i will find out if the back sits 2-3 inches higher than the front or only 1-1.5 inches taller.

 

Oh i forgot to ask-are the snow plow package springs taller or just rated stiffer for more weight?

 

Stiffer 6000# rated.

 

thank you for the info.

 

So it turned out pretty good. Getting rid of the block and going with the leaf on the axle is a much better drive. Now the back sits 1.5 inches higher than the front. So, the either the previous owner put a 1.5 inch coil level on it or the leafs were sagging that bad. Either way i like the way it turned out.

Rear Leafs=6 inch lifted Skyjacker Softride Leafs
Front=3 inch RC lift (maybe longer coils not sure)


Thanks for all the help and suggestions!!!
