That does look really high in the front. But if you are 40" from the ground to the top of the fender well that is pretty close to what the rest of us are experiencing.

Same thing here on my 16 Lariat. I went from 36 3/4 to 40 1/2 on mine.

Now if I can pick the perfect tire / wheel set............The ride adjustment ***** are VERY hard to turn and aren't marked, same for ya'll?
Lonegun, I was able to run 34x12.5x18 BFG KO2 tires on mine with no rubbing.

I'm lookin at 305/65/18 (33.5"x12"x18). pretty close to yours, but a lil room. Thing that's got me is the offset, seems I can only find 18x9 wheels in 0 offset, probably because they gotta be chrome. With em stickin out so far I was afraid your size would be an issue, although Rancho's advertising says 35"

I did a test fit with the 35s and they fit, but I was very close to touching, so I figured I would go one size smaller and not have that issue.

So I e had my quick lifts for around two months now. I like them and have only one issue, and that is I'm sitting about a half an inch nose high. Has anyone else had this issue and if so what block should I get to raise up my truck so I'm a half inch high in the back instead of the front. Thanks Mike

I have yet to install mine as I can't decide on wheels/tires at the moment, but research tells me to go with a 2.5" tapered block. This should lift the rear up 3/4 - 1".

To keep the "leveled" look, I personally will stay under 3" rear blocks. I bought the RS999384 shocks and Stage3 graciously exchanged them for the RS999287 rear shocks in case I decide to go higher.

yea I only want to raise it an inch at the most so 2.5 will do that?
