    Who has done the 2.5 or 3'' spacer lift yet? Did you go blocks in the rear or add a leaf? How does your ride look?

    Also, if you did the 2.5'' were you able to fit 275/70's with no rubbing?

    So a 3" in front, 2" in rear will be level?

    Measure the front.

    Measure the rear.

    Subtract with math.

    Whatever that number is is what you need to be level.

    Go get a tape measure. It isn't something the Internet does for you.

    Thanks for the simple math lesson. I don't have mine yet and I'm trying to get the parts here before hand. That's why I'm asking the questions. Thanks for the help though.

    You can't take measurements off of someone else's truck.

    You can only ballpark things, but if you want to take that chance that's fine, it's not my money.

    Every truck is different and will give different numbers.
