I am sure this question was answered above, but there are a lot of posts.

Will adding a leveling kit void the factory warranty?

I have a 2018 4x4 supercrew. I want to level it after reading about it. What would you guys recommend in the front? I have 20 inch wheels with 275/55R20 tires. Don't plan on going much bigger on the tires.

Thanks.

I’m not a lawyer, but what understand is it would only affect you if something failed as a result of the modification you made and not likely a level kit will do any serious harm if installed properly. Plus the dealers do them. If in doubt hire the dealer to do the work.

Did it a little differently.. the progression...

Stock...



Blocks Removed...


With Raptor takeoffs. Some rub but much less than expected...



And as of this past weekend with 1.5” strut spacers... no rub!



1/4 inch higher in the rear. I’m happy with it now!

The Toyos you run are 34.8 tall. The KO2 in that size is actually only 34.5. Maybe .3 is enough to make it rub.

Looks great. Is the rear stock? No modifications.

I guess everything is subjective. I like some of the OEM designs, but honestly, Ford isn't very good at that on trucks. GM and Ram have done better in recent generations. I find the factory Ford wheels a little bit old-man-ish. The STX wheels currently are the best looking factory ones, but they're too narrow and sit too far inside the fender in my opinion.

I went from this:


to this:



My truck literally turns heads.... strangers compliment me constantly and that never happened on stock wheels.
