I like it a lot. I have been thinking about doing it for a while. If I get this done, I will have to wait to get new tires. In your opinion, how does it look with the stock tires and rims (same as mine). It may be a year or so before I change tires, but would like to get this done now, as long as it doesn't cause the stock set up to look TOO undersized.

How do you like the stance? Is it level, nose up, slight rake? Do you feel like you need an aal or block now? My truck is bugging me but $100 for a block is hard to stomach.

Is the 2.5" a little too high in the front? What's bugging you about it? I am soooo close to getting a leveling kit on mine, but don't know "jack" about it.

Yeah it "appears" nose high. The bed is about level. I just think that with the body lines and fender heights on these trucks that some rake is necessary to provide a pleasing look. My superduty and '89 f150 looked great dead level. But they have more square bodies.

There are plenty of threads on this subject. Just use the search button, read, and reread. Check out the 04-08 forum too. Not everything applies 100% but still lots of good info.

I put the ReadyLift 2" Leveler Kit on mine and it measures exactly the same 39.25" from floor to underside of fender well, front and rear.
