Hi

I order my leveling kit, but i didn't realize until i get then that i order 3" leveling kit, when 2.5" is suppose to give you the actual level on and 05 FX4.

Do the 3" level the truck without adding any rear height?? or i need to make my rear block bigger??

need to add a block to the rear.

DOH!

Hey... look at it this way, now you have an opportunity to add a lift to the rear.

In this case withc is better opcion, get the rear block or get the 2.5" kit??

Lenn

Easier... swap out the 3" for the 2.5" level.

Cooler... Keep the 3" and get an extra 1" for the rear.

You already have blocks in the rear. All 4x4 trucks have an xx" lift block in the rear. Just get one that is 1" larger.

Ok, i think i'll do the cooler one, i'll add the 3" witch is better option, 1 3" block or stack the OEM 2" with a 1".

And where can i get the blocks cheap, i don't want to spend much on this, cause the HBS is already cheap.

Lenn

Fatbobsgarage is a good cheap place.

Secondly, dont ever stack blocks. Get one three inch one. They probably wont cost more than $40-$50 including U-bolts.

Ok, this is getting more expensive that what i want, but mistakes cost, money, blood or suffer, or all of then.

Will the ride comfort be affected by the taller block??

Lenn

Nope... If you go with an AAL (add-a-leaf) it will make the ride much firmer in the rear but you will benefit from added payload capacity. Drawback to them is that they are MUCH harder to install.

I'd stick with blocks.
