Default hello everyone! new owner some questions

whats up f150 owners this is my firist full size and i love it can wait to start modding it a 04 xlt black in color....


my questions are does anybody have any pictures of the rough country 2.5 inch level kit with the extra block in the rear?

i have been searching for 2 days now on the forum looking at all post and i cant really find anything
what do you guys thing about that setup with 18inch rims and 33's?
on the rough country website it said you can fit 35's with minnor trimming but i would not want to do any trimming and be that close to anything so i would like to go with 33's but would like to see some pictures before i ordered anything!!

If you keep them on stock rims, you can fit 35s w/out trimming (depending on the width, you may rub on the UCA at full lock).

Here's my truck with a 2.5" level, and a 3" rear block (both from autospring), tires are 275/70R18 (a little over 33"s):

Look around the site for pictures of a truck with backspacing you like and see what theirs is. Sticking with a 33 should save you some trimming.

i returned the rough country leveling kit, it was bull****. it didnt even get the 2.5" it says it will. i went with the 3" kit from ready lift, much better plus with some good blocks in the back i fit 35's with extremely minor trimming of the front wheel wells.. a dremel tool is all you need.
