Ok, dealer may be inexperienced. I will try an alignment shop. I just didn't want to be taking it to 2-3 paying for it and in the end it cant be "perfectly" alighned.

No mods just the quick lifts. I do have the rancho rears and a block, but if you drive a speed bump on the front end that's big wow do you ever move on the front. you bounce. so to me it seems like the springs are to stiff. Ive tried all settings and they react the same.

just a bit disappointing, I don't quite remember these days what the stock ride was like but vaguely remember it being very smooth and comfortable. I avoid speed bumps because you bounce so bad!

I put the 2.5" Rancho ReadyLift on my F150. It was a horrible ride just like you are talking about. I put the 2.5 Level on my '14 Sierra and it's much better than my Ford with the ReadyLift. I would just suck it up and get rid of that lift and go to a leveling kit. Lift is too short to ride in a truck like that.

First of all, yes, your dealer can align it; they are choosing not to. Having a crooked steering wheel would drive me nuts.

Wheel alignment is a crap shoot. I went to one of our better known 4x4 places after I put my level on and they brought it into "green" specs. Only the Toe was out. But it was wearing the LF tire bad, so I took it back and they said it was a degree off. Still noticed wear on LF, so at 15K service at dealer today, I had FE alignment done. Their print out said the LF was fine but the RF was off. ?? That makes no sense to me as the RF was not wearing. I had an X rotation done, so I'll monitor treadwear and see what happens. At this rate, there is no way I'm get 65K out of my Nittos.

if you get the leveling kit that goes on the bottom of the front struts and you only take off the bolts for the lower part of the shock and install the spacers, do you really need to get it aligned again? You are not messign with any other parts of the front suspension that would require to get it realigned....

Really nice setup! just curious what wheels those are and where you got them?

they are factory wheels that seem to have been powder coated black

what can i do to get a bit more lift...... it has a 2" level and I am running 305/55/20s I just feel like it needs more lift.

Can i run a 4" lift and have it not look like it has really small tires??

Has anyone seen this exact Chevy leveled but without the split chrome horizontal grill? There is a solid horizontal grill that looks sick, just saw it, wanting to see what it looks like leveled.

Yes, it changes quite a bit actually. Any time you do suspension mods, even just strut replacement an alignment is recommended.

I have this Rough Country kit and did need an alignment after it was installed. Truck only had 3,000 miles on it at the time.

I recently added a 1" level and 275/60/20 Cooper AT3 tires. it raised the front end just over 2". I still wanted a little rack in the truck. Overall I am pleased. I would post pics but cant figure out how.

I take pictures with my phone, email them to myself, save the image from my email onto my computer.

Some others just copy and paste a link where they already uploaded the pictures to a 3rd party website.
