Mine was 2 3/4, I put a 2.5 autospring spacer up front giving me 1/4 worth of rake. The truck is on a incline in this picture.

I got a 2.5 pro comp in mine now, it's completely level with no rake.

The rake on mine is a ridiculous 3-5/8"

Interesting. Mine is about the same. 2018 XLT SE with FX4 package. Rear measures exactly 40” and the front is 36 7/8.

I want to put a 2.5 inch leveling kit but afraid of the CV angle. A buddy mechanic told me not to go higher than 2 but with my rake I’m afraid I won’t be happy.

Take the block out of the rear so you don't have to raise the front so much.

Would that have any impact at all on my ability to put on 33s if I put a 2” in the front and removed the 1.25 block from the rear? Sounds like my best route. I also don’t know how much an empty fuel tank changes the measured rake but I’m sure it does. I’ll have to fill up and remeasure.

Yes 33s will still fit if you are using your factory rims.
