I also purchased the RC speedometer calibration tool as the speedometer was of 5mph at 60 mph
Awesome, thanks for the info. I also just did the RC 2.5" leveling kit and I love the stance, just need bigger tires now. I will also look into that recalibration tool for the speedometer.

Oh I didn't install it myself. There's a truck shop near me, they installed it for $400 including the kit and the alignment. I thought that was a great price.

Take off the axle nut and hammer it until it starts to move (using the nut and a soft hammer), then pull tie rod, roll bar, then upper ball joint (remove upper ball joint the nut until it's on a few threads only, then tap the side of the knuckle until it pops free). Then undo the brake line from the inner fender wall (Just a nut not the actual brake line). Remove the ABS sensor from the UCA, then you're golden. Use something to keep the knuckle from flopping out entirely, and tap out the axle shaft until it's "long" enough to not disconnect the upper CV.

EDIT: Loosten the upper spring perch nuts first as the UCA is under tension and will be in the way after you disconect the upper ball joint.

I did this on Friday, and it took me < 4 hours to do the entire Fox kit front and rear.

This looks great. How did you achieve the level? I'm planning on the 5100s and the same tire but not sure which circlip location I want to use yet.

I used the 5100s on my truck. I went with full 2.5.

I went with Pirelli Scorpion AT Plus with RC leveling kit and 1.25" spacers. Happy so far.
