Default 3" leveling Kit

Has anyone tried a 3" leveling kit on the 2015 F150 4WD? If so how did it look, pics?

There are members running boss coil overs at 3". Look for those.

The rear measures about 1/2" higher than the front. The only offroading I do is mostly graded fire roads in my local mountains. I really just wanted the full 3" level so I could run the same exact tires I had on my '10 FX4, Goodyear DuraTracs in 325/60-20, without any rubbing. I tried the Auto Spring 2.5" spacers (I did trim inside the wheel wells with the AS spacers) and the tires rubbed when I was reversing and maneuvering or when I would enter a driveway with the wheels turned. There is NO rubbing at all with the Boss coilovers on. :-) Just FYI, my '15 is a SCAB without the front factory crashbars.

No I did not. I wanted to see how it goes with the stock ones first. The only time it should be at full droop is when it's on a lift. After installing them and before I took it off the lift, I checked to see if the ball joint was touching the springs and it was not on either side. After giving it a test drive I looked at the angle of the UCA's when it was on the ground and they looked almost level. The CV angles look fine as well. I am going to check it periodically to make sure nothing looks bad and if so, I will put the Icon UCA's on.

Nice *** truck man! Love the look of the boss kit. Seeing this just made me 100% sure I'm going with the boss kit. What size tires are those?
