Tuff Country Leveling Kit

05 F-150. Just finished tonight installing the leveling kit I bought from Summit Racing. The salesman lead me to the Tuff Country brand cause the were made out of steel and bolted on top of the coil. Wasn't nearly as easy as the directions made it out to be. It never said to drop the upper ball joint and then pry, beat and repeat to get the lower bolt to line up on the strut to a arm. What a B!@#h. Make sure you have a extra set of hads around. Looks good though!

Anyway, I was doing some more reading and came across a thread saying it might be a good idea to possibly regear. How do i know what gears I have and what to possibly change to. I haul my boat in the summer time a few times a month and that about it. Any suggestions?

I'm installing a set of 305/55/20 Nitto tires and Hot Wheels rims. I would have put them tonight however the lug nuts I bought from Summit were to ***** big and I couldn't get the socket between the nut and rim. Hopefully I can find a smaller diameter nut.

Look in your door jamb and you'll see a sticker that has a bunch of factory info on it. Find the part that has the axle code, and just google that to figure out your ratio.
