Guys I need help and opinions... when I bought my truck it had a leveling kit installed already from the dealer with stock king ranch wheels and toyo m/t 295/60R20. I was not satisfied with the ride of the mud tires so I had them swap them for some BFG KO2's. The BFGs are not offered in that size so I had to go to 285/65R20's. So now the tires looked too narrow so I put on a set of fuel octane 20x9 +20 offset to even them up with the fenders. I want to upgrade to 35x12.50r20 ridge grapplers on these wheels now but I am having trouble figuring out what leveling kit my truck actually has (2" or 2.5") I was wondering if anyone could help me figure it out. My front fender height is 40-1/2" and the rear is 40-3/4". If this measures out to a 2" leveling kit I am going to replace it with a 2.5" BDS but if it is a 2.5" already I thinking I should be fine to proceed with the 35's... If anyone has any input it would greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

 

Pics...

 

have you measured the puck?

 

See signature pic.

 

No but the dealer just happened to call me and tell me its a 2" spindle source leveling kit. I have never heard of them until now so I am looking them up as we speak.

 

That's not going to help very much.. 40 1/4 is 2.5 of lift.

 

Hmmm? BDS told me I could clear 35s with their 2.5" leveling kit. Looks like I got a block added in the rear too but it's hard to tell I will try and get a pic

 

 

i had some measurement info i was trying to get for my coilovers. Delta hooked me uo with some measurements with a 2" puck and stock tires. Then added the additional measurements for the 285/65/20s. Below is the comment im referring to.

I'm at 38-3/4" from the ground to the front fender on stock 275/55/20s with a 2" spacer level. That puts me significantly lower than you, even after you've dropped yours back down. But that's mostly because you have bigger tires (31.91" vs. 34.59").

The effective ride height increase due to your tires is half that difference, or 1.34". I measured my stock FX4 fender height with stock tires at 37-1/8". If we started off at the same height, and you're at 40" now, your coilovers have given you (40" - 37-1/8" - 1.34") 1.535" of ride height vs. 1.625" that my spacers gave me. Essentially no difference, assuming nominal tire sizes are right, and tire pressures are dialed in, and so on... so our CV angles should be pretty darned close, yeah? Yours are maybe even slightly closer to stock. And I'm happy with mine.

 

Is that with factory wheels or with aftermarket wheels with +20 offset?
