I ordered mine from Stage 3 Motorsports. After installation, the front went from 37-7/8" to 39-3/4" a 1-7/8" difference and the front end, while needing an alignment, was within spec with no problems.

Thank you for the info. Im going to order the set. Is the ride quality better than fx4/stock suspension after being broke in a bit?

I can't really say as I put these on pretty much right away. What I can say is that after doing it, it is still far ahead of my 2015 both stock and after I did the Bilstein level, and I was quite happy with that at the time.

Did you confirm it came adjusted from them for the new year or can you assume it was based on what lift you achieved? I might reach out and ask if they are adjusting before sending.

I didn't confirm that they came adjusted for the new year. I assumed it based on the results others got that gave them different results without adjusting, i.e., reverse rake, etc.

I asked them and they said it doesn’t come adjusted from them. The whole thing confuses me greatly but as long as you don’t have any issues I guess you’re good.

I asked Roush the same thing, they also confirmed they do not come adjusted for the gen14 trucks. They also confirmed it's absolutely necessary to lower them for proper suspension travel and that leaving it in the position received will limit the stroke of the components resulting in a ride deemed unacceptable (their exact words). I had my dealer lower them 5/8" before install. After install my truck still has just under 1" of rake.

Default 21’ branded Roush/Fox 2.0 with no adjustment. DO I HAVE A REVERSE RAKE?


Had the 21’ model year Roush leveling kit installed at the dealership I work at. Does it seem like the front is higher than the rear?
