Those that went from 2" to 2.5"

I just went from 2" to 2.5" on my front leveling kit. I had the truck aligned when I did the 2", do you think it needs to get aligned again after the 2.5". I assume the answer is yes but just wanted everyones input.

Just a quick question about the 2".
when you had the 2" on was the front end still higher than the rear like the 2.5" seems to do?

Your truck didn't sit level with the 2"? Others have posted that the late 2006+ trucks have 1/2" less rake, so 2" should do it.

The 2" made it slightly higher in front so I then installed an Add A Leaf. That then caused it to be higher in the back again. LOL The 2.5" spacer with the Add A Leaf now has me exactly at 39" at all 4 corners. Keep in mind I have a 2wd.

4x2... that makes sense. 39" is right about where a 4x4 rear end sits.

I've got the 2.5" on my '06 FX4 and it sits perfectly level!

Supposedly, trucks that were built late '06 and later that had 1/2" less rake. Maybe yours was an early build?
