Rob,

I looked at your gallery and I was wondering if you had a sideshot picture showing the overall stance of the truck from bumper to bumper?

Thanks!!

That is exactly the look that I want. Thanks for the pic Rob. What's the best overall leveling kit out there?

some ppl say the front is higher than the rear but they are dead nuts the same height. as for best leveling kit I dont know, I have the Skyjacker 1" Kit and the only thing I dont like about it is the spacers are Red, I prepped and painted them but its chipped off in spots due to the compression.

CDR your prolly gonna want to go with a 2" or 2.5" kit which skyjacker makes also. Your prolly going to need a track bar relocating bracket also.

Is there a reason he needs the track bar relocation bracket? Not doubting you, but I haven't heard of people going 2.5" needing that. I'm curious because I will be doing the same height lift in the front.

I was thinking about the Truxxx kit. 2.5" block in front, 1.5" blocks in back. I figured that would be the way to go because I will also have the plow prep springs, which might make the front sit a tad higher because the springs won't compress as much.

Tire plus size

I installed the 285 75 18 Toyo Open Country's without having to add a leveling kit. The only thing I had to do for clearance was to remove a small rubber spacer from my front Ford mudflaps. Everything looks good, rides good, and lots of clearance turn to turn. And remember theses tires are load rated compared to a lot of others which aren't.

it just depends on how much the axle moves over after the lift is installed. You dont NEED one but if you want the front axle to be centered then you'd have to get a reloc. bracket or adjustable trac bar.

do you have a 350 or a 250? with the plow package you'll have a helper spring(overload leaf) in the rear. if you have a 250 just swamp in a F350 block and u bolts. if you have a 350 i'd try and find an AAL in the size you need, instead of stacking blocks. just my .02

Has anyone put on the Skyjacker 2" kit that replaces the front springs and adds a leaf in the rear instead of adding the spacer? I was thinking about getting it.
