Level

Ordering my “leveling kit”... went with adjustable Accutune Fox performance 2.0’s (tunes for carli coils and my ranch hand front bumper), and need to order carli coils, carli sway bar drop, carli bump stop drops and brake brackets, and fox ATS sterling stabilizer (whenever that comes in). Haven’t decided on track bar so I’m open to suggestions.

for tires I’m thinking Toyo R/Ts or Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Still undecided on size.

37's man. just do it. My ready lift track bar drop bracket worked great, was like 150$, and i got it in 2 days via Amazon...id still prefer a carli/icon/lewis built bar though.

Really like the stance of your rig (I think you may have sold me on a leveling kit). Just curious, did you have any “pushback” from the tire shop with mounting a 305 on a stock wheel (assuming you didn’t do it yourself)? According to Coopers website, “technically” a 305 is supposed to go on a 8.5” wheel, which it seems the big tire shops seem to not deviate from the manufacturer recommendations. Just curious about your experience with this.

Had no pushback at all. I was very surprised because Discount Tire is very by the book usually. I wonder if they missed it on their end.

AMXDreamer,
What brand 1.5 level did you use on your truck?
Tasteful, looks perfect.
Well done.

Thanks, not sure on brand, they were billet alluminum ones the local diesel performance shop had in stock. I wanted some rake still so the truck didn't look like it was squatting when towing.

With the 1 1/2" did you have to do a trac bar bracket or and adjustable one? Any alignment issues? I am on the fence about leveling my new 19 from some of the reviews I've been reading so I though maybe a slightly smaller one may be less problematic......

How much did the axle shift to the side with the 1 1/2 or is it even noticable?

I meant to ask before, but do you have any rubbing with the 305s? I’m trying to decide between these or the 295-70-R18.

Wish someone one would offer a true 36/12.50. It would be perfect size.
Sharp looking rig, how do those Toyos ride? Did they balance easily?
