So I'm just about ready to get a leveling kit. Just a couple of questions. I think I'm leaning towards the Bilsteins adjustable. If I go that route should I out them on all 4 corners? I have about 1.5" difference right now and I want to level it and raise the whole thing 1". So I'll be adding a rear block and end up with 2.5" front lift and 1" rear lift.

So my questions are:
Bilsteins on all 4 corners or just the front?
Where can I find a 1" rear block? All I've seen are 1.5".

Also my truck is a 2011 XLT 2WD. Is there already a rear block in there?

Thanks in advance. And Merry Christmas.

I also heard a fx has a diff rake stock than others?!
Check out timbrens to help with squatting under load. Great no maint product. Stock ride unloaded but keeps truck level under load. Put them on my last 3 trucks. If you add lift to the rear call timbren direct and they can send you a longer spring.

How do you like those tires? I just bought a set of 33x12.5x20, just waiting for a back ordered rim to come in to mount them. Are they loud road driving?

I like the tires. You can hear them but they're not too bad. This is my first set though and I've had them about 5 days. Had 33 toyo's before and I think those were louder.

Finally after 3 years it was time, took 60k miles to wear out my stock Wrangler SRA's. Autospring 2.5" level with additional 3" rear block and Goodyear Duratrack 275/70 R18 on stock.

Nice.
Ive been debating on the 275/70 R18 or the 265/70 R18 for my 4x2.
I just got 2" spacers for the front that Im planning to put on soon.
Do these Goodyear Duratrack tires roar much?

Duratracs aren't too loud. You'll hear them but nothing wicked loud
