Got a lot of tread to wear thru on my 265/70R17 BFG A/T KOs before I can up my tire size.
Thanks I really like the set up, and the tires are actually a lot quieter than what I thought they were going to be. I could find much on the Rancho Quick Lift either, so I will continue to post updates.

Looks great man. What a difference.

What settings you have the ranchos at? Tried adjusting at all?

I found too soft in front and you get harsh rebound over speed bumps. Has to be up 6+ or so. Rears i seem to like soft around 3. See how that changes if any with the rear blocks tho.

When they installed them they put the settings at 3 all the way around, I haven't had a chance to mess with the settings yet. I'll have to try moving the fronts to 6, because like you said speed bumps are a b!tch lol.

I ended up getting the ready lift 3" block and ordered it off of Amazon, something that heavy you can't beat free shipping!

Thanks I like the white and black look! Nice truck I like the 4" lift, definitely the best size lift for the F150 IMO

Looks great! I got my Rancho Quick lift on Amazon too. I set mine at 5 and turn them all the way up when I tow my travel trailer. I also bought new blocks for the rear but never installed them because I liked the zero rake. I still have them in my garage and may try them out this weekend after seeing yours!

One trick I learned is installing the rear shocks backwards to where the adjustment **** faces against the shock mount. I do have to remove the bottom bolts on the rear shocks to adjust them that way but it stops rocks from breaking the **** off. It's a pretty common complaint on the Rancho's.

Yeah I really like having the rear blocks, I had about 1000lbs of stuff in the bed if the truck this past weekend and the nose wasn't in the air!
