I just measured my gaps. 2 and 1/8 of a difference so a 2 will be perfect. Do any of y'all know if a 35/12.50/20 would fit. Minor rubbing would be okay... I've seen some guys say it does or does not. I was under the impression that our factory rims were not wide enough to support them. But I'm not a gear head by any means so I'm probably mistaken. I can get either the set iof 275/65 for 200$ or the 35/12.5 for 300$ both have 65% tread life remaining.

 

Not sure my brother said his buddy runs 35" tires with the 2.5 RC level but I don't know if his rims are stock or if the tire width is 12.5... I think the tire would be too wide for the rims for my liking but I'm sure they'd fit the rim and seal. That's one of the reasons I'm going to sell my rims... I''ll buy a wider rim with more dish/offset to then to pull the tire away from the firewall and avoid inside rubbing. I plan to run either nitto tg 305/55/20 (33") or toyo open country 33x12.5... think our rims are 9-9.5 wide and that's just too much hang over for me.

 

When I added my 2" AS on boxing day my truck was higher in the front by a 1/2 ". Of course I've added winter weight (6 bags of water softner salt) so I'm probably close to level. Without using a measuring tape it looks pretty level.

I'm wondering if those of us with 3.7L and ecoboosts need less of a level since our motors weigh less than the 5L \o.O/

 

Dont know what the difference is. why some say theirs sits level at a 2.5" spacer. For my truck, 2.5 would have been way too much, without a bigger rear block. I had 1 7/8" rake before the lift. With 275/65/20 tho, 2.5" front spacer + 2" or 3" rear block should look good. Stock block is 1.25".

My wife drives the truck during the week. I wil try to swing by her work and get a pic.

 

Here is a pic of my 2011 with auto spring 1.5 and 275/70-18 (33.2) tires. Hope this helps




Here is a before pic.

 

Weird isn't it? Mine sat perfectly level with a 2.5" but my buddies truck (same year and trim package) was nose high with the exact same kit. I think it's all in manufacturing tolerances which is why there is such a broad range in spacer sizes.

 

Hey guys,

Just got my 2013 f150 extend cab 2wd, the first thing i was looking for was to pick the front end up, but everywhere i go says they dont make any leveling kits for the 2013 yet. Anyone have any ideas where i could order one maybe? was looking for like 2 in.

Thanks!

just ordered a 3" nylon front leveling kit and a 1.75" rear shackle lift. hope it lets my 35" nitto terra grapplers on xd cranks fit?
