Default 295/65/18 and level

I'm looking at the above tire size in a Goodyear durotrac. Will a 2 in level be enough on a 06 fx4

Are you running stock wheels? 295 may be a bit wide....

A 2" will be fine and will almost level the truck mine is about .5" lower in the front. I did the same setup about three weeks ago and it looks awesome. I will post some pics when I get to work.

Pics. The 295 were not too wide I can fit a couple of fingers between the tire and ball joint.

That looks perfect. I. ordered a 2.5 hbs level kit. should have it all together with level install, gy durotrac tires, as seen above, and black nfab wheel to wheel nerf bars. if the rear sags at all I may do some bilstien shocks to raise it up I guess. should have pics in a week. how tall are those 295 65 18s? 33.4?

Yeah 33.4 sounds right. I did the 5100's in the rear at the same time and I don't think you get any height out of just the shocks you need to do a bigger block or aal.

Post up some pics when you finish I love the look of the Nfab steps. Good luck with the setup.
