Default fx4 leveling ?

Ive been looking at the post about which leveling kit to buy but im still not sure!! I dont want the front to be higher than the back!! I want to come up on the front just enough where it still has that raked appearence to it!! Should I go with a 1.5 or 2"? Reason I don't want to come up completely level is because I tow a boat a good bit and dont want the rear to come down lower than the front with the weight of the boat!!

Thanks Jesse!!

I would go with the 1.5" Thats what I just put under my FX4 and it looks awesome. It sits almost perfectly level. The 1.5"s are just kinda hard to find.

Just depends on the weight of the tongue on the boat trailer. Best way to figure it out is to measure. Get it on a level ground and measure front and back at the top of the wheel well. Note the difference in height. Now put the boat on and measure it again. You should be able to figure out what you want from those measurements.

We could tell you to go with a certain height but this way you are making the decision from your own information...

I will be going with a 2" spacer or a strut replacement (depends on $$) and then I will be throwing air bags under the back when we get the travel trailer.
