I roughly measured 3 inches, it's not a hpp or max tow but was built with the solid sway bar, brake controller, big tank, oil cooler ect. Someone ordered it and bailed. Idk why it had soo much rake, heres the payload and frame type
2WD I'm not totally sure about because honestly I don't know what the stock suspension is like on those. I have Bilsteins on all 4 corners with the fronts at 2.1". The 285/65's are 1/2" taller and wider than the 275/65's.
There is definitely more than 1/2" at full lock to accommodate the 285/65's, but I'm also 4WD FX4. There's more photos and information in my build thread under this post. Some tire stores like Discount Tire are more than willing to do a front wheel first and make sure they will clear before doing all 4 tires. They did this with me and actually let me go look and make sure I was happy before having them do the other 3 tires. If I had to make an "educated guess" I would think they would clear on a 2WD with the Bilstein's. I'm very happy with the 275/65's. Saved $300 and about 30 pounds.
I’m sitting in a parking lot looking at your truck right now. Looks awesome! Hit me up sometime.
Thanks for the info. I'm new here as well but have lurked for a while.
I reached out to my dealer and they didn't know a thing about it. I was pretty surprised by that so I showed them the media release from Ford. I'm waiting for them to tell me what the installed cost is before I do anything.
I had the same problem. The dealer came back to me with every option but the Ford option. I found them online for about $150 less than msrp. I needed new tires so I asked the tire shop if they would install the struts and align the truck while they had it. Total cost at the tire shop was $2200 - Tires, lift install, alignment and tax.
I'm sorry you had to see it in such a gross disgusting state! Lol. Let me know if you're ever back this way! Your truck looks good too, man!
Thank you. Hoping to get it tinted and get the Bilstein 5100 installed pretty soon. I’ll keep you posted on when I’m down there next. I’m out in Livingston County, so not too far.
Hey everyone—new guy here. I wanted to take a moment to post the results of the new Fox/Ford leveling kit. I installed it this weekend along with Nitto Terra Grapplers- 305/55 r20’s on the stock wheels. I’m running a ‘17 Lariat fx4.
1st thing to note is the ride. It is a HUGE improvement over stock. Rigid when you expect it but just as plush, if not more, than stock. I’m really digging the ride quality.
2nd thing to note is that I have all the clearance I will ever need with the tires. I went off reading through ruts and washboards and didn’t rub. I had a few full compression hits and no rub.
the suspension is worth every penny and there are no rubbing issues with the described setup. I just wanted to share this since I had read so many articles and posts that left me wondering if I would rub or not.
cheers!
You have any pictures of your truck? I have a 2019 Lariat Screw with Fox 2.0 and front crash bars removed. Trying to figure out what is the biggest tire on can fit on my OEM 20's.
Just got mine leveled. 2019 F-150 XLT Sport Screw, 3.5L max tow package. Magnetic 6.5 ft bed. 2.5” Auto Spring level in the front riding on factory rims and 35x12.5R18 no rubbing and no trimming!!!
