You can pop the box right off the hinges, takes just a second. No holes to drill, either. It's pretty even with the wheel well. It might stick a 1/2 to inch out past it.
That's good to know - thanks for sharing! I really like the looks of your new setup.
No, rides the same, but, just feels like the nose isn't in the dirt anymore. It felt more like driving the wife's Explorer! I may get a little bigger tire, when they are ready to be changed out. I think the 20" wheels would look better than my 18's. Fill the wheel well a little more. Do what I did. Take a picture of it now, then, put a jack under the front, and jack it up 2", then take another pic. Then you'll know if you like how it looks!
Which kit did you install? I'm going to be doing the same to mine, I have the 20" rims and will probably go to 34's x 11" to keep the bulk down over the 35x12.5s
Looks sharp! Now when you say it rides like a truck now, are you saying it is stiffer now?
As someone who just traded in a F-250 6.0 with an 8” lift and 37” tires I must say I’m liking the ride of my brand new bone stock truck, and for the first time ever may not lift this one. I am intrigued by the leveling kit but am not sure how it will look with my factory 20” wheel package. I really don’t want to have to buy wheels and 33” mud tires to get it to look right because I’d then compromise the factory ride quality and at that point might as well do a 5 or 6” lift and 35” tires.
I’m trying REALLY hard to be a “grown up” with this truck.... lol!
It's not the best picture but here's my wife's '18 with a 2" LK and 20" wheels. The tires are slightly bigger than stock but not by much, they are only 33" tall but a tad wider than stock. Ride stayed the same.

Had the leveling kit put in on Friday. I was going to do it myself, but, it's just too damn cold right now, and it only cost me 300, which included the alignment. Looks so much better, and feels like a truck now!
Installation, alignment, and not having to deal with the cold weather, various tools, and busted knuckles for $300.00?

20's are the perfect size for those wheel wells! Looks great!!
