I put in and out of 4WD high and low and had no issues tonight.

Here is some other photos at different angles. Question......after you install a level kit is it normal to have some noises in the suspension? I'm thinking yes do to you have to break everything apart and when it goes back together it all has to settle. I welcome any comments on this.

2017 KR, 2.25 Ready lift, 275/65/20 BFG KO2's. Discussed with dealer going to 35's and they told me it would void my warranty. Bummer.. These are 34.1 according to factory specs. Due to narrower width I have the room and was going to go with the 295/65 which puts me at 35.1/11.6. Dealer said they were getting to having to many power train problems with the larger tires and will void warranty. Wonderful West Texas scenery

Your dealer is full of crap. a) they (the dealership) doesn't get to "void the warranty." b) They'd have to prove that the tires you put on it are what broke something, should something even break ... furthermore c) dealerships don't pay warranty claims, Ford does, so they're talking out of their ***.
