Also, to fit 275/60R20 you don't need a leveling kit or blocks, can easily fit them stock.

Thanks Wayne! Yes, I know 275/60/20 will fit stock suspension just fine. But I really want to get the truck a little higher and well, more level. These RWD's have way to much rake. I am thinking to just do the front 2" and re-install the OEM shackles (I have Ford Performance 2" drop shackles on now). Then after the front settles and I have my alignment, look at adding the rear block.

That looks great! The set-up currently on my work bench would take away another 3/4" of rake, which to me may look perfect.

I am planning on dropping the back 1-2" to level mine out.

Well I will be selling my Ford Performance drop shackles with shims when I get around to doing mine. May be a month or 2 though. This one:

Mulvane is like 2 hours away, but the shackles are on my truck for a month or 2 longer. Its the older kit that comes with shims. I have had it on for about a year and a half. I got almost 2" out it, maybe a hair under.

HMU when you are ready to sell. If I don't get it before then, I am interested.

I have a 2018 STX 2WD. No rear blocks. I like the rake as it is now but would like to lift the truck up a bit. I was wondering if anyone has put 1.5" blocks in the back and 1.5 spacers in the front?
