That's fine. I'll drive it this weekend and see if it settles and I'll call you Mon. Thanks for everything Alex, your customer support has been top notch

Cool! As it turned out he was perfectly leveled with our 3" front lift and our 2" rear block. Truck looks great!

Just got mine ordered! I will be running the 3" rear in mine. Can't wait to get it put on. Any rubbing with the 34.5? I'm thinking I want to go up to a 35"

No rubbing at all. I think you could run 35" but you might have to trim some

I've finally had some time to update things for some people and here's what I've learned. When Alex tell you he sells a leveling kit that's exactly what you get! Even though my front measurements are high it's perfectly level!!! I've had a level on both the running boards and the bed rails and they both are dead level. These trucks just play tricks on you with their shape!!!
I had a buddy give me some 3" block for the rear to try out and I can say the stance is just not for me. It puts the rear at roughly 3/4" high in the rear. Sometimes it's more noticeable then others but I notice it all the time.

Pic with 3" block

With that I've now found some raptor rear blocks which are 2.5" and I'm waiting on them to arrive so I can se what the stance looks like with them.
Hope this helps some of the guys asking questions
