I just had an AS 2.5" kit installed and I still have 1 little over an inch rake. I had a shop install the kit and I never opened the box to measure the front spacer, but I think I might have gotten a 2.0" kit instead of the 2.5". What measurements are you guys getting after installing the 2.5" front and rear kit on factory tires? After everything I had read on here I really was expecting that it would sit level, at least less than half an inch rake.

My truck is a 2010 screw 4x4 short bed.

I installed a 2.5 inch lift level from ccm offroad on the 10 screw shortbed that i traded in. Just like u i had atleast an inch of rake and wasnt real happy. I was hoping for bout a half at most. Really researchng before i settle on what kit i put on my 11.

2" as on 2011 screw 5.5 box. level.

Keep in mind that the size of the spacer doesn't indicate the amount of lift given.

That's a nice looking truck Tejas.

If you installed the 2.5" front and 3" rear kits, then that's about right. Replacement 3" block gives you about 1.5" of lift, so when you factor in the 2" factory rake, your left with 1" of difference.

After reading more I believe that I got the 2" kit. The measurements I'm finding are in line with mine. I guess I should have checked the kit before the install. Now I need to decide if I want to order the 2.5" kit and install it or find smaller blocks for the rear.

Keep the 2". You will be glad to have to rake if you ever tow or haul anything heavy, and you should be able to run plenty of tire.
