Did they ride well without the level?LT265/70/R17 General Grabber ATX E. You will notice a little bit of performance loss (I have no tune on mine yet because I need to find a pc, mac isnt compatible ?), but the tires ride fantastic and they are just as quiet as stock. They handle great as well.
Yeah they rode great and I didn’t notice any rubbing either, but I also tried to avoid full lock if I could
Thanks for sharing pics of the 1" wheel spacers on the hub. I wanted the look of 1" spacers (as opposed to the 1.5") but I could have sworn that I read that the 1" spacers don't work on the stock wheels since the lug studs slightly stick out and interfere with the mating surface on the wheel. I'm glad that it doesn't look to be so - at least with the sport wheels that I also have.Cooper AT3 LT265/70r17 (6 ply) with Traxda 1” leveling kit, 1” FactionFab wheel spacers. Rides amazing, looks way better, zero rub of any kind. Small (if any) performance loss. Ford Performance pack tune/filter go in this week.
They work just fine. The OEM wheels have indentions on the hub area to clear the studs. ??
How has the Ford tuned Fox lift been working for you? I just ordered and am looking forward to getting it installed. I can't find many reviews on the Ford tuned version.
I have a friend at Ford Performance and he said that there is a huge difference in the shock valving between the normal Fox kit and Ford tuned kit. Not that Fox is bad - they definitely know what they're doing. But the Ford tuned version will be more familiar and the feel will be more in-line with other Ford products. That being said, I haven't tried both out so I can't say from experience. This is just what I have been told.
I just got mine installed a few days ago (I also put load E tires on so take that into account), but the Ford Performance Fox 2.0 kit is amazing. It’s a little more stiff than I thought it would be (not in a bad way), but the truck is much, much more planted now. It is very confidence inspiring and soaks up bumps with ease. I used to hit these bumps in a certain spot on the highway every morning on my way to work and the truck would get very unsettled and would get loose on me and it was not a very comfortable ride. That problem is completely gone now and I could not be happier with this suspension. 10/10 rating from me.
That's great to hear. Now I just need Levittown to ship it! ?
I've also got an STX with same wheels and I'm looking to put on 265/70R17's. I see that's what you did here, my question is, did you have to use spacers? Or was it just a simple tire install with no modifications necessary?
I like that wheel tire combo too, this was first trip to the woods
