New hear so I'm sorry if this has been discussed already.
I just got a 2018 f150 limited. On order are a set of cali offroad Busted 20 x 9 with a plus 18 offset, 275/65/r20 ( 34.09") 11" Nitto ridge grapplers, Icon 2.5" resi front and back.
Questions are
Will the tires rub on the resi? Ive recently just emailed icon but id love to hear back from members here also.
I also read that the rear shocks will raise the rear end ( not sure how thats possible) and also some people saying that they are using block also to keep it level
Here is what I'm after I guess.... I drive lots of gravel roads. rough ones too. Im after a level truck with good handling.
I have the icon's on my truck and after I installed them I was getting like a ping-rattle type noise from my passenger side coilover and it ended up being the round washer underneath the foam bumpstop on the bottom of the shaft that would make noise when hitting bumps. I ended up putting some rtv silicone underneath the washer so it wouldn't move and on the driver's side the foam bumpstop is snug enough against the shaft to hold the washer tight. Just a thought. Can you get a pic to show how close the tires come to the resi? Thanks
Holy crap that’s wicked wicked info. I’ll check that out for sure. So did you have to disassemble the coil over to silicone it then? I didn’t do the work but I’d this is a simple fix I’d love to try it out.
On the bottom mount that supports the coil spring there is a opening that allows access to the bumpstop and washer, it’s not a lot of room but it’s enough. No disassembly.
Appreciate the help for sure. I just went out and grabbed a tube of the silicone. Hope it works. It’s definitly sound just from the right coil. Seems like it’s loose almost.

maybe be stupid question here but
first step jack up the truck and take the wheel off or can this be done with the wheel on?
The washer on yours was was loose then and the silicone stopped the play in it?
