No issues at all. 275/60/20 and getting ready to throw on some Motiv Magnus 20x10 -24 wheels on with the tires. I expect some rubbing. But spreading the crash-bars slightly will cure that.

Awesome good to know. How was the install of the motofab kit? The rear seems pretty easy.

My opinion is to get some fender measurements first, then decide which level you need. F150 rake seems to vary a lot based on how it is equipped.
The method I use is; on as flat ground as possible, measure from the ground to the highest part of the wheel arch.
My truck had 3" of rake, but it also has 3.73 gears, which includes the 9.75 rear axle & higher weight capacity springs. So it may have more rake than another truck with different options.

I used a 2.25" ReadyLift level and ended up with 1" of rake. I'd rather have it level...but this body style sometimes looks "nose up" dead level, so 1/2" of rake is where I'd like to be.

To accomplish that, I bought these 1" aluminum lift blocks and had a local machine shop mill off 3/16's. (stock blocks are 1.25", these blocks are now basically 3/4" = 1/2" lower) I haven't installed them yet, I'm hoping the there is still enough depth in the reliefs for the centering pins that they will fit without more mods.

Overkill to get my level how I want it....? Absolutely! But I like super subtle mods that make my truck look different than others, without people knowing why.

Hate the ride but what I can afford at the moment to get height I want, installed some mudflapz with tires to help with the off road look, left front tire rubs on left full turns only but I like how it sits. Saving up for halo to get 2.75 and upgraded UCAs. Paid 60 if I’m not mistaken. Good luck on your level choice! Photos once you level, love the sport look on these trucks. (PTM)
You hate the ride!? Love the look, was wanting to do the same to my Limited but not sure how much ride quality I want to sacrifice. What dont you like about it?

Readylift 2.25 billet kit gets my vote. It's our most popular setup and no issues with them.

2.5" level with 35" KO2s and 17" Raptor Beadlock wheels. Rides great. No rub.

rough ride with any bumps. Nothing with just normal driving but trying to glide over speed bumps or small drops you can definitely feel the spacer just bottoming out. Maybe it’s my 12ply tires too. Working on getting some thicker tires to see if maybe that’ll help with ride
