2.5 level not sitting level

[Mattyb3434]

I have a 21 fx4 with a 2.5 level up front but still has a little rake. Do not tow much and considering taking the rear blocks out to hopefully get it perfectly leveled out. Not sure if anyone has done this I tried looking around but could not find anyone with a level and the blocks removed. And if so did you add a shim with it? Thank you in advance.

I installed a Motofab 2.5" level puck and removed the factory rear blocks (about 1 1/4" tall) on my 21' XLT 4x4 and it sits slightly higher in the front but I love the way it sits. I also have a toolbox in the bed that probably weighs about 200 pounds so the rear may be squatting a little due to that.

No need for shims or anything and kept the factory U-bolts. I just loosened both sides with the truck on the ground and then jacked up each side at a time, removed the blocks, lowered the truck back down lining up the axle with the leaf spring and tightened it back up. No difference in ride quality at all.

I tell everyone I know that installs coilovers on a ford to remove the rear block first because if you don’t you’ll still have a little rake ..you get 2” from a fox 2.0 coilover maybe more if you adjust but they’ll ride a lot different .
I see threads on here with guys that run 35s and they don’t rub … Well I’m far from that lucky so my 295/70/18 rubbed a hair on passenger side when I backed out of the driveway … coulda cut here and there but instead I went with a 1 “ puck on top of my fox coilovers and it works great also added a 2” block in back …still sits dead level … I’m calling the truck … Raptor .. ish …

What fender flares are those? How did you wire the lights to them? They look good.
