Fellers i have a problem i installed the 2.5 as level kit this weekend finally got an alignment today and well this is where it gets bad the front of my truck from floor to fenderwell measures 37.750 the back measures 36.750 so i'm not happy that's exactly the look i didn't want so after thinking about it i remember the dealer installed a dampner in the rear cause truck had alot of bounce question is does anyone know what it looks like, should i remove it or just go for some spacers or ????? Help me me out with any suggestions gotta get that level look!!!!!

 

Throw on a add a leaf and it should sit level.

 

Or a 3" block would be even easier

 

2wd or 4wd? year of truck?

 

It's a 2007 2wd i also tow a 6000# tt if that matters i see some people rather go with an add a leaf for extra load handling but i'm trying to save money for those damn bfg's but i want this issue fixed first also any recommended blocks or leafs brands you guys have used also prices if possible thanks seems i'm getting closer to a resolution

 

Don't the 2.5's kick it up a little higher anyway or is that just on the 2wd?

 

I have an 08 reg cab 2wd and it did hte same with mine. I bought a set of FX2 1" rear blocks and some new u-bolts to fix it. it will be about a half inch higher in the back when I am done.

 

Hey blue150 can you let me know if that works and what's that cost of it all did you buy at dealer also do you just stack together or what !!!!

 

Well, I am waiting on the funds to get new tires. Could be awhile unfortunately. I know the blocks will work because I actually had them on a few months back but the ubolts were threaded wrong. It measured and looked perfect. I have no rear blocks right now so there was nothing to stack. I just used the 1" blocks from the FX2. I got them from Tasca Ford, they advertise here. I called Fat Bob's garage and they sold me some ubolts that are long enough. I don't plan on putting them back on until I get the new tires because it looks kinda goofy right now.

 

Cool so our trucks dont have any blocks from factory is that what you mean so if i just go to my local dealer and ask for a 1 inch block for fx2 what size u bolts did you have to order from fat bob's thanks for info what kind of prices am i looking at if you don't mind

 

Use the OEM blocks, they are "more better". You can get the 2" blocks from a 4x4 at a salvage yard for next to nothing......with the u-bolts.

Also....measuring from the top of the wheel well isn't exactly the best spot to determine if your truck is level. The front and rear wheel wells are different sizes. But I understand you're towing also, which will definitely make it look like it's dragging. So it sounds like the 2" block from a 4x4 would work perfect.
