After running the 1.5" blocks for about a week the suspension has settled and I still notice a squatting appearance. So I just ordered the 2" steel blocks with new U bolts and hope I get the stance I am looking for.31263c5a718cc580dc60824ddba1d304.jpg72a4e11f15bf7a2a17d7987ba7705449.jpg

Those tires and the height really set the truck off. Looks good.

Thanks a lot guys! Theoretically I should be gaining only 1/2" but I went with a different brand of lift blocks so we shall see. I am excited and will post pics for you to see.

Factory Height: Front 36.75"

Rear 39.5"

After tires and leveling kit Front: 39 3/8"

plus 1.5 Blocks Rear 40"

 

Tires are Federal Couragia M/T 33 12.50 R20

They were $755 shipped to my home from Walmart. Comments vary on reviews as they used to have sidewall incidents. I took a risk as two of my local friends have been running them for two years already with no issues. What I gathered from them is that the old white wall Federals were the faulty ones and people were running them too low PSI. Anyways I will let you know with time but as of now I love them. They look great and ride great.3690356b4be057bdd28c3cbb0f051022.jpg

Leveling kit is coming now I need a 33x12.50x22 set of tires. Not looking to pay 1800 for a set for my stock wheels to be used but I don't want to step down to a 20" wheel that I particularly don't like. Hmmmmmm

After having the drivers side upper control arm stick and my passenger wheel stuck to the hub, I finally finished my 2" rough country install. My truck feels a lot more like my F150 Fx4 now.

 

If it wasn't for the two hang ups this kit should've taken me 2 hours.

 

I'd love to see those guys on the YouTube videos installing these kits, work on truck with 40-50k miles instead of those brand new, every bolt removes easily trucks.

14 silverado with 2.5 rough country leveling kit with 20x10 Hostile Sprocket wheels laced with 33x12.5r20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I did minor plastic cutting with no rub. I was told it couldn't be done and it was easily doneattachicon.gifIMG_20161229_163643_472.jpg

Truck looks sick. Love the black wheels. I almost went with a 20x10 but I got no lift yet and my pockets are hurting right now. Lol

I had the motofab and attempted the self install and with only 500 miles on my 2017 the upper control arm on drivers side would not give so i took it to "one stop shop" and bammm they made me look like a wimp lol. I swear i was hitting it hard and have a BFH just like yours. Perhaps i was just nervous of working on a brand new truck.

I beat the shit out of the joint with a regular hammer then I remembered I had this bastard, literally one tiny tap and pop it free'd up. Passenger side popped out on its own free will.

Here is a picture of the AT after having a 2.5 inch level kit with Bilstein 5100's set at 0 lift on the front and Toyo Open Country RT 33x12.5's on the stock AT 20's.
