Some 2019 vs 2020 height comparison
Just noticed this vid...
https://youtu.be/iC0ShwDOj04 |
Some good insight. Sucks headlight and tail lights look to be different. I was looking at anzo headlights and tails.
|
I wonder if the 350 has been lowered the same amount.
|
I measured a F250 Tremor yesterday and it's the same height in the front as a 19 F250 and one inch higher in the rear. The 19 F250 was a Lariat with 20 inch wheels.
Didn't have any F350 Tremors to compare. |

Didn't have any F350 Tremors to compare. So based on the info in that video, and with what you've said, an F250 w/Tremor would be 1/2" higher in front, but 2.5" higher in the rear than a comparable non Ttemor 2020 F250. |
If the 350’s are an inch and a half lower in the rear like the 250’s then I definitely will not be rushing out to get a 20/21. Don’t feel like spending a bunch of money to get a truck that sits lower than my 17 and certainly won’t spend any money lifting a new truck just because Ford made a mistake IMO.

I’ll be happy if it’s lower. My 5th wheel will sit level with lots of bed clearance.

From what I saw on a TV interview with a Ford SD rep. at one of the 2020 Auto shows, No. He stated only the F250 series was lowered based upon Ford SD Customer feedback (stating the 19's set too high). He also stated that the F350/450 remain unchanged in ride height.

Its too bad these guys didn't include an F350 comparison in this video. |

Forget those videos.
One “engineer” was woefully unprepared and was answering technical without actually knowing the facts. Both the 250 and 350 are lower. 1/2” in the front, 1 1/2” in the rear. The Tremor uses the 17-19 original height. It’s not much of a difference and hardly noticeable. If you question this, simply take a picture of the rear axle spacer block to see the size change, and you will see for yourself. The weird thing is that some trucks look like the same height as the 17-19, even with the lower blocks. The lower height will be the new normal. Ford will lead, and I’m sure the other two truck makers will follow. Lowering the hood and roof height will also offer better mileage. I admit I was disappointed when I discovered that the 350 will be lower...contrary to the uninformed engineer, but after seeing them, I’ll survive. If the new height is unacceptable, you have two choices. Keep what yo have forever, or add the snow plow package for the front to gain back the 1/2” For the rear, it’s a simple rear block difference. I’m not sure if the shocks are different, but it’s in everyone’s interest to toss the shocks from the get-go anyway. I doubt anyone will object once the trucks hit the road. Still looks pretty awesomehttps://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...229d8383d.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...a71e64a517.png https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...d89644828.jpeg |
1-1/2 lower would be perfect for me. My 5th wheel is that amount off level now.

Here are a few more.
They look like total Ford bad azz and very attractive... https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...589436d20.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...aecec722e.jpeg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...7ee481a23.jpeg |
I can tell u there is no way my new Tremor is the same height as a stock 2017. Not sure if stock 2019 was taller but my ‘17 fit in my garage w and inch to spare.
My Tremor won’t-no way no how. It’s at least a couple of inches difference. Thats my experience YMMV |
