AS 2.5 Front 3" Rear Block

As title says installed AS 2.5 front with their 3" rear replacement block. Got the look I was going for without breaking the bank. Would highly recommend.

so total lift over stock is 2.5" in front 3" in back? also the back it says replacement do F150s have a stock block in back that is swapped out or there a landing that's welded to the axle that's removed or something, meaning it'd be LESS than 3" in back? I don't own an F150 so I have no idea what it looks like back there... looks fairly tall are those 33"s on 17"s? or does it also have a body lift and those 35"s? hard to tell from the front wheel wells seems to see alot goin on in the wheel well and nerf bars are kinda low, but the exhaust tips are up high so it would either have to be a custom weld job or still stock body to frame height... either way looks pretty nice

dont think he has a BL, look at hte rear wheel well the bed still sits on the frame. the 3" block replaced the stock block which i think is around 1 5/8" or so, so he got about 1 3/8" of lift in the back.

stryker, i like the look of your truck alot. you should black out your tips and running boards now to finish off the look. where are you front wheel wells?

your correct there is no body lift the rear 3" block replaced the factory 1.5 inch block i believe it was. I was advised to do this replacement as well by AS due to the tire size, those tires are LT315/70R17 or 35x12.5r17 basically same tire and size. i was thinking about blacking out the tips as you mentioned just need to find a nice heat safe paint of some sort. the running boards im taking off soon as the wife pops out our baby and get well enough to get into the truck without them and the wheel wells are still there i think the flash just played tricks in the photo.

the ride isnt all that different then stock being that most of the same componets are used. got the great look of sitting higher without all the harshness that some lifts can give
