Lift it or level it

That truck looks great but I wouldn't go any bigger than 35's on a daily driver, or even a truck I drove weekly to go hunting.



My only truck has 37's on it. I only drive abou12,000. Miles a year. Every time I sock away $5,000 from the wife to buy hunting stuff I spend it on my dodge diesel. I've spent $12,000 in the last 18 months on my truck just to keep it on the road, and that's not including the initial lift tires and setup.

'08 F-250 Superduty lifted 4-1/2". Lift from Icon dynamics. Used to be dynaho dynamics. I did not skimp on the hardware.. I am running 35/12.50x20's. Performs great. No gooseneck or 5th wheel action possible though.. I do tow big trailers and offshore fishing rigs w/ great results. Always pack a same size spare. It will fit fine in the stock carrier.. Good luck.

Who ever installed your lift forgot to put the rear add-a-leafs in. Fronts sit about 2" higher than the rear

Thats what i thought when i saw the pic too man. The truck is sittin on an incline here at work and then then i cropped the pic so that makes it look that way as well. I measured the gap between the tires and the front is 10 1/4'' and the back is 10 3/4''. Close enough for me

Your truck still has a rake to it....regardless of how you tilt the camera!

I put the 3'' leveling kit on my F150 and added the 2" lift to the rear. Looks great...even with a trailer on it!

Duuuuh! There's no "camera tilting"... I can't stand the nose up look and don't really care for flat level. I WANT a little rake. The point was to lift not level, Sir.
So I went with 2" setting on 5100 Bilstiens up front and 3" blocks in back (stock rear blocks are 1.25").

If you have what you say you have, I can tell you yours is nose up about 1" without even seeing it. 3" front spacers are too much and will damage your trucks front end sooner than later, if you go off road much.

How much is that lifted and what size tires. I really like the look and looking to do seething with my 1500 Chevy

Thanks.

2" level up front and 3" blocks in back (stock rear blocks are 1.25"). So I went up 1.75" in the back from stock.
17" 35x12.5 BDG ta ko's.




WARNING: If you're mostly city driving you'll love it but IF you are off road or on bumpy country roads much your ride quality will go from a ten to about a 6-7. Your mileage (w/35's) will go from 20 hwy to 16 hwy.
I'm thinking hard about dropping the back to stock and the front to 1". And going to 33's. Was actually going to do it a couple weeks ago and had something come up. Haven't got back to it yet. Looks great and clearance is great but dang the ride and mileage is a bummer...

Here's my 2013 with 2 level kit on the front and stock read. 35 inch BFG AT

I decided I am probably going to lift my truck now just trying to figure out what brand I am going to buy. On another note here is a link to the bumper I am building for my truck.

Here is a pic of my truck with a Carli leveling kit. Tires are 285/75/17. Could easily run 35's. Get a GOOD Quality brand lift or leveling kit. May cost more ,but the ride & handling is well worth it.

Here is mine. Full Carli suspension, best on the market. Rides like a car.

My 2004 I had I just leveled it and put 35" on it. Loved it I personally would not like it any taller and it was a beast. I wish I still had it!
