Default Ecoboost w/ leveling kit and 33s on here?

Im getting ready to trade my 2008 XLT 5.4L for an ecoboost soon. I had hell bent steel 2.5 leveling kit, Banks CAI, Banks Monster exhaust, throttle body spacer, 33" nitto tires with XD Series Monster rims and PHP Gryphon custom tuner.

I am also looking to do the same with an Ecoboost if I get one.

Anyone on here have a similar setup with there ecoboost??

Yep. I liked the stock rims so they stayed.

I still wanted slight rake (1"). Had I done a 2" level up front and left rear alone truck would be dead level but then hauling a load or trailer I would be nose high. With 2.5"'up front I would have been about 2/3" nose high had I left rear blocks stock. so swapping out to 3" block I gained 1.75" lift in rear. Stock blocks on 2012 4x4 are 1.25" (and no arguing. this is correct bc I measured them when they took them out). I hate factory rake but like just a bit of it.
