I dont mind it being lower. Anyone looked up numbers of 2020 GM HDs vs non tremor F250. Interesting GM goes higher, Ford goes lower. My guess is GM is taller now. (Non-Tremor).

I have seen the video on the 2020 F250 diesel where they measured the bed height on the box around the rear 4x4 sticker, they showed 58" and when I measure my 2017 F250 Lariat Diesel with 18" tires I get 57" at that same location. It seems that 18" tires will give you a better ride height for towing a fifth wheel trailer as I do.

Lowering '17 - '19 SD
Blocks: 6C3Z-5598-A
U-bolts: BC3Z-5705-K (for F250, check for F350)
I got mine from Tasca.
Some will say you can cut your existing U-bolts but be prepared for a slew of responses to the contrary.

They are lowering it because of a significant number of complaints about bed height, entry height, and difficulty with fifth wheels towing nose high; practical reasons that make a truck easier to use. To me, that makes a lot more sense than making a truck look "lifted" for aesthetic reasons.
