Mine definitely settled. When I first put it on I was over 6 inches in height difference. The rake in my truck is because I put an add a leaf in the rear. Otherwise the kit would sit pretty level. I like the rake myself . I do tow from time to time also so it helps.

I only change the rear shocks. I think they were the Rancho 7000 series for their 6 inch lift.

I am hoping with my Helwig 789 helper springs it'll help with the rake and towing, as it should. I also like some rake too.

I ended up purchasing the 5" RC bracket kit as you said, only bracket kits would keep the stock wheel width, everything else was putting them out 1-2+ inches.  I also went with the Fox 2.0 IFS rear shocks. It's scheduled to go into the shop on June 17th. I may also throw on some N-FAB Podium steps too. :D

Thanks for your assistance.

How do you like the Deavers? Do you tow anything?

I love the Deavers but they are designed for ride performance. I removed the hitch so don't tow anything, but yesterday I had about about 650LBS in the bed with minimal squat in the rear. Adding weight definitely softens up the pack a lot so I did adjust the shocks firmer to compensate for that

I just got da beast back from the shop yesterday from having the RC 5" bracket suspension kit put on. I kept my adjustable Bilstein's up front, but put them back to stock height and put some Fox Performance Series 2.0 IFP shocks in the rear. I would have liked to put in the reservoir shocks in the back, but too rich for my blood right now. The front wheel well measures at 42" and the rear at 42.5", which was only 4" in front and 2" in the rear difference in lift over the bilstean's at the top setting and 3" blocks in the rear.

 

I also installed a set of N-Fab LG Podium steps. Excuse the dirt, but it had been pouring down rain and had to help a friend remove a tree from on top of his shed.

Hey guys need some advice

I have a 2018 Crew Cab Silverado that has a leveling kit with 20inch factory rims and I want to make the change to a 4-4.5" lift.  I want to run 17" tires with 35's (I'm old school and like more tire than wheel).  It's mainly a daily driver on the interstate, but goes off onto logging and gas line roads and some sketchy spots during hunting and camping seasons. Which lift should I look at- one is the Fabtech 4 inch Uniball with Coil overs and the other is the CST 4.5" stage 2?  Any input is appreciated. I want it to ride well on road, but be capable off road and not just look good.

I just added a Tuff Country 4” lift and took out the 2.5” leveling kit that I had on. Truck drives much smoother and I can clear 35s A/T with 18” wheels that I bought for it.
