If you take a tape measure and measure from the ground to the rear wheel well and subtract that from the same measurement of the front wheel well, its usually 2 inches difference. Whatever it is, say 1.5 or 2 inches, go with the right kit that fits your truck.
I have a 2009 screw XLT and I put a 2 inch leveling kit on mine and its leveled out perfect (I believe 37 inches for both wheel wells)

Hope this helps

 

Can you post some pics?

 

yeah ill post some later tonight. i dont have any before pics. just search the albums for a royal red 2009 platinum and mine sits the same. do you want pics of the rear blocks or just the truck?

 

Both if possible. I would like to do the same 2.5 front and 1.5 rear. Just looking for the right kit or parts for both front and rear.

What's the size of the factory rear blocks on a 4x4 platinum. I thought they were bigger than 1.5
Looks good RW very nice

 

thanks man

i think the factory blocks are only about an inch

 

Auto Springs website says they are 1 5/8 for 4x4 and to use the 3" blocks for 4x4.
Now I am confused. Guess I need to measure. I was thinking about adding a little in the A$$ but not a 3" block.

 

what i did was buy the kit for the 2wd its 1.5". The u-bolts that come with the blocks are to short so i used a set from 2004-2008 4wd that i had on the shelf. worked fantastic

 

So does this mean you stacked the 1.5" AS block on top of what I presume is a stock block that is 1.5"... total of 3"?

 

shiny black block on top is new

 

so you stacked to make 3". Not sure I like the stack. Prolly just buy the rear for mine and see if I like it.
Thx for the pic RW

 

Agreed... while it's probably perfectly fine, I'm one of those people that would worry about it constantly... every little noise I would freak me out... I'd rather have one solid 3" block...

Is the stock block on the 4X4 the same size as the stock block on a 4X2? You bought the 1.5" 4X2 rear block kit, so I'm wonderinh if the stock 4X2 is 1" and this gives a .5" lift... which I think is all I would want/need for my 4X2...

 

im susprised no one mentioned the bds spacers look like pretty good quality, and they also offer a rear block setup so it will lift the rear 1" over stock
