2" Revtek Leveling Kit 33x12.50r17 Mickys On 17" American Racing Ar-6081. Pics In My Gallery. Installed Tuesday By Myself In 3 Hrs. Piece Of Cake!

Fyi, If You Want The Truck To Sit Completely Level Buy A Kit That Is Labeled 2 1/2 Inch. The Revtek Lift Is Sold As A 2" Kit And I Only Got About 1 1/4 Inches Of Lift. The Tires Still Fit Fine.the Kit Says I Could Run 35 And It Looks As If They Would Fit.

Im also planning on running the 295/70R17 nitto's haven't seen anybody do it. Just having problems trying to figure out what wheel to put on. I like the centerline crossfire made specifically for the 2004 F150.
