Bump. I'm curious myself. I've been having some front end issues lately.

I have the Readylift leveling kit w/ the trackbar bracket. All works great! Didn't do the install myself though. I had the Ford dealer do it when service, tires, & shocks were done about 65,000 miles ago. I also have the 5" rear blocks for a VERY slight rake. All works as advertised.

It's not as bad as what people have posted. I've had a few wobbles after hitting some bumps and pot holes.

Not yet. The tech at my dealership said I had a little bit of play in my track bar right now. Figure I should fix that first. I'll prob do the Rancho Dual kit.

So I had some extra time to do the install this afternoon...its pretty straight forward, the big bolt that holds the track bar to the bracket was a b&*(h to get off!! but after that it was a piece of cake! Only downside is that my steering wheel is off 90* to the right now, truck definetly does ride better! It seemed as if theere was a slight pull to the left before and now it seems to be gone....Definetly worth the money in my eyes!


Now fellas how do i fix my steering wheel?
