snow plow package

For those with the snow plow package, what is your front rake. I did a quick measurement in the garage the other day and it was 1.5 low in the front. Is that what others are seeing.. 2019 XLT snow plow, FX4, 6.2L.. Also, truck only has 400ish miles on it, so it may settle in and be a little more. I want to level, but don't want to go too much and be high in the front.. TIA

I dont have a plow prep, but they do have level kits as low as 1". I've seen others post their added height from the plow spring and it wasn't as high as yours. I think they were diesel though.

is the front higher with the plow pkg, and is the ride much worse without the weight of the plow and gear?

I do not plow, so have no insight on how it rides with the plow and gear. It rides fine, better than my 2015 250 diesel with plow that I had. Not as good as the 150 I just got rid of though (no surprise).. I am assuming the front is higher due to the heavier springs, I don't want to get a 2.5 if I don't need it. That is why I am wondering what everyone else with the plow pkg and gas motor experienced

Rake on these trucks without plow prep is usually between 3-4".

I have the camper pkg only with the upgraded springs. 5200lbs springs vs plow package and I'm just at a 2in rake.
