Will be getting my diesel in the next few weeks and plan to get 2inch level installed before I take delivery. Does anyone out there have this installed? What's the rake like at 2 inch front level only? Is it too much?
Yes..I lifted the front another half inch and the back a half inch on the right side and 3/4 on the left to level out the lean it had from the factory.
To me the truck looks completely level all the way around now.
I thought there would be less rake on the diesel with the heavier springs but that's not the case. I am 37" at the rear fender well and 35" at the front. Therefore the 1.25" zone would not be enough.
I'm a newb so forgive me. Purchased a Rough Country 2inch leveling kit for my 16 Dirty Max and after reading here, worried it will not level the truck. For some reason I can't see the imiages. Can anyone confirm the size I need I need to take out all factory rake?
You're not the only one who can't see them, I cant' either. I am installing a 2.5" up front and add a leaf in the rear on my Trail Boss Dirty Max tomorrow. I hope it doesn't make the front sit higher, that will suck balls.
Mine wasn't nose high with a 3 inch lift in the front and stock in the rear either.
Keep in mind that the front suspension will settle in at a half an inch lower once you get some miles on it.
At least my 2015 Canyon did. It made me wish I would've went a little higher then the 2 inch lift.
Yeah that happened to me to this weekend. The front coilovers that were supposed to be set to level the truck ended up actually raising a bit higher than the rear. Fortunately I planned ahead and ordered a 1inch rear block (because I've had this happen before) and with that everything is about level
I'm getting the Block installed by the dealer before I take delivery so no details on the block itself...Picking her up next Wednesday will post a picture when I do. I can't see it affecting ride at all like the guys on here have mentioned.
Eibach used my truck as a tester for their existing (designed for the gas v6 truck) Pro-Truck Sport ride height adjustable setup. I believe the front can be adjusted 0", 3/4", 1.5", and 2" via secure snap rings. It's a slick setup. I'll attach pics. They will probably update their site to show compatibility with the diesel soon. The washed out pic is the "after" at the max height.
