As stated above, I got about 1.65" of lift from a 1.25" spacer on my 2014 FX4.

Thanks for all your input Wiggum. He got back to me today and said the same.
I just ordered my AS 1.5" and I cannot wait to get it on... did the test heights with my jacks and its just what I'm looking for!

I ended up ordering the 1.5" level from autospring. Installed it yesterday and it leveled my truck out perfect. When I measured before the front was 2 in low but now it is dead level. Gotta get it aligned but gonna try and wait 2 weeks til I get my tires and have it done at the same time the tires are installed. Stock wranglers have 52000 on them now and are toast anyway. Going from 275/65R18 wrangler SRA to LT275/70R18 cooper at3's. At least that's what I'm stuck on right now LOL I do a lot of highway driving but don't want a straight highway tire for those side trips.

Note it is possible your leveling will change/settle overtime. I was .5 inch high in front originally. 3000 miles later and I was .25 inch lower.

As a note of caution to go with the last comment, I check the nuts on the studs going to the leveling spacer every so often just to make sure they stay tight. Just takes a minute and could save some real headaches.

Thought this was the most appropriate spot
For this question.....just leveled my f150 with a rough country 2.5 billet spacer. Love the look!! What is everyone's opinion on importance of torquing everything back to stick specs? Everything on my truck was tight but I didn't have a torque wrench when reassembling. Should I take it to a shop and have everything torqued?
