awesome! Do you sit level with the 2” or is there a forward lean?
Mine sits perfectly level, guy at the shop who runs a 17 Screw Sport put the same system in his and he has a half inch rake which really can not be seen without a measuring tape. All comes down to options and weight of vehicle for compression of the springs.

sweet, doing the install over the weekend. Il be taking before/after pics to see the difference. Will be nice !
Just got the Ridge Grappler 35x11.5/20 installed this morning. Running the Ready Lift 2.25 leveling kit. Installed, aligned and the alignment guy at the Ford place said I should have no problems with rubbing due to the width. Used superchip to re-calibrate speedo. Set it to 33.75 and speedo is showing 1 mile an hour faster than GPS. 75 on cruise over a few miles is giving me 74 on GPS. Very quiet. Dealership only put 35 psi. Will bump it up to 45 before I hit the road for that 806 mile trip to W Texas for work. May air back down to 35 due to terrain once I get there. Will see how they do. I have only ran the BFG KO2's out there due to terrain. Hopefully these can handle the sharp/jagged rocks on the lease road.
A 315/70R17 or 35x12.50R17 will fit (might rub crash bars, fender liner, mud flaps, etc) on a 2”+ leveled truck with the proper positive offset, which in the case of the raptor wheels is +34mm. You can clear “35s” on factory wheels too (+44mm) but they’re gonna come extremely close to the UCA. Get some raptor take offs and you’ll be good.
Do you think I could clear 35x12.5x18 tires with a +12 offset running Eibach’s pro truck sport lift kit with springs? It’s suppossed to gain you 2.7” of lift and I’ve already cut out crash bars and trimmed fender well plastic. Would I need aftermarket UCAs as well?

If you’ve already cut crash bars and trimmed they shoud fit just fine. That should also be enough offset to clear 12.50s without getting too close to the stock UCAs (tire width to UCA clearance).
Aftermarket UCAs would probably not work for you with a 12.50 on a +12mm offset wheel. Almost all aftermarket UCAs actually require way less wheel offset than stock UCAs do to clear 12.50s so I think your tire would not clear the UCA. That’s coming from the aftermarket guys themselves not me. They almost all say 5.00” backspacing max to clear 12.50s.

Thanks squidpocalypse I was thinking it would. My brother in law has a ‘12 with a 2.5” spacer and cleared the same tire and wheel set up with some trimming. The guys at eibach and stage 3 said no way. I appreciate your help.
Loving the 2" levels. Thoughts on this.... I have 20x9.5's @15mm offset. I'm not good with the math on this as to how that compares to stock, but they do stick out a little, so definitely pretty far from stock. I have gone up just one tire size to 275/60-20's and I do get some rubbing when the wheel turned about 1/2 way and hitting a bump at the same time (such as entering a steep driveway with the wheel turned). I really really want to eliminate that. Hoping that a 2" level will do this for me.
