Hey everyone, i was wondering if some one could measure or tell me what the height is from the ground to the top of your wheel well on the frame, like the actual top of the painted arc in inches on a 2wd 04-06 f150. I added the 2.5" AS leveler and am trying to figure out the actual lift i achieved, i have already driven on it a little and had it aligned so its pretty settled. Please let me know, thank you!

 

i hope this helps, i have an 06 SCrew Lariat with the wheel moldings, front come to 34.75in and the rear to 36.5in. that is why i am worried that if i install a 2in kit, my front will be .25in higher than the rear w/o a load. if i put my tool box in, my rear will sag even more. what to do, what to do?

 

if i were you i would install the 2" kit not 2.5". I did the 2.5 and i am at just over 37" up front now, so i am almost 1" taller in front than back, but i am putting the 2" blocks in the back with a 6" lift soon, so its not bothering me, but if your putting the box in the back too go 2" not 2.5. jmo
But thank you very much for the measurement, helps alot!

 

where did you get your rear blocks? are they factory or aftermarket?

 

factory, its tough to find the aftermarket because you need the 2 pin ones and most aftermarket are the 1 pin blocks, so they do not sit correctly.

 

also, what size tires do you have on your truck, because my rear comes up to 37.25 and now my front is 37.5. So i am a little high in the front, and thats why i am adding the 2" rear blocks, to give me a rake to tow a boat again!

 

you may also be better to do the AutoSprings 1.5" kit if you are doing the toolbox and do not want the front the same height or heigher, go with the 1.5, it should work perfectly in your case

 

i have the stock 18in tires that came on the truck. i dont want to change them. all i want to do is get a 4wd look on my truck. i will be adding tow hooks next week and just wanted the height. didnt really want to change the back but i will if i have to. i cant seem to find the 1.5in kit anywhere. i use to see it on ebay, but it is not even on their website anymore.

 

does your truck have the wheel moldings? that might make a difference also.

 

no i do not have the wheel moldings, my truck is just basic, i am not sure why the height is so different, i have 18 rims with 265/60/18 tires so i have no idea, i just know the height is different...o well, i jsut want to know my height gain, ill figure it out sooner or later

 

did you have to get new shocks also for the rear when you put on your 2in blocks? also can you give my the part numbers and prices for the blocks and u-bolts? i think they will be cheaper on fordparts.com.

 

no i did not need to put in new shocks for the back with the 2" block, and i found them on ebay, i am actually not sure of the part number but i will look into it for you if i find it i will definatly post it, sorry!
