They said the speedo would be 2% - 3% off. I just got the truck back yesterday so have not checked it yet.
When I went to SDHQ, they had pictures of several other 2017 Superdutys that they had did the same setup on. When I went the second time, they had one of the trucks in the shop and that pretty much sold me on 37s.
I got the adjustable versions of the shocks at all four corners. On setting 5 the ride is way better than stock. Planning to set it to 1 and drive a couple of days and then set to 10 for a couple of days.
In your honest opinion do you think 20x10 w/37's would rub ?
Mine sits 1.5 inches higher in the rear. The only minor issues are the pitman arm and the track bar.
The pitman arm does work but the tie rods would adjust better with a slight drop in the pitman arm.
The track bar relocation bracket provided in the BDS kit is not exact. It leaves the axle 1/4 of an inch off Center. Again it's not a huge deal, however with the truck being brand new I kind of wish things were perfect. I may need to get an adjustable track bar at some point to center the axel.
Steve's Alignment Shop Springfield MA! Great place. I forgot to ask what the caster is though.
Just did the 2.5 readylift and Rancho 9000xl. Had it done by Ford, but have questions. I only drove it home tonight about 15 miles seems ok, and looks ok. Had the Readylift track bar installed and the correct adjustable caster nuts described in this thread. My question is about the alignment pictured below. from what I'm reading here it should be a range of 3.0-3.5 or so but mine is only 1.5. It is not pulling or does not feel off, but if it is wrong I will need to correct it. Thought?
Maybe more to it....just looked and the did not install the bump stop extenders. not sure where they are but not on the truck, so what else did they forget.
Just thought I would share some pics of the track bar relocation bracket and my pitman arm
that look
That looks different than the track bar installed on mine or it's possibly mounted wrong. It could be the factory one as mine says Readylift on the new track bar.

Hey Tricon,
Do you think the BDS 0-2" Fox 2.0 Shocks that they use for their 2" level kit will work with the Carli 2.5" coils? I have those shocks and want to get the coils but am concerned I should have gotten a slightly longer front shock. What are you using? Do you have part numbers?
Its definitely not the stock ford mounting bracket lol. The BDS bracket comes with the square "cams" that can be installed 2 different ways based on the size of your lift. Those can be seen in the photos. It moved the axel to the passenger side too far and the square cams were not enough to adjust for it. The inherent problem with the bracket is that it only fits 2 sizes really. What I need is a fully adjustable bar so it can be adjusted exactly. I really wish Carli made an adjustable track bar for a 2inch lift.
LiquidStream I have a 2" lift with the Ready Lift Track bar bracket and it's dead center. Don't use the Carli Sway Bar drops brackets they need to redesign them after my pic's I sent them. There's 2 issues with them.
