That is a real slick mount and I would bet they will have an option for the parking sensors. Only thing keeping me from being 100% in is I want an option that reinforces the front of the truck so I feel better about future removal of the crash bars. Cant wait to see what this looks like...
Thanks, appreciate the response to that. So is it the strut that prevents the over extension on a system like the Fox 2.0 vs a stock strut and spacer combo?
Great question. I put on a 2.5 inch spacer and no other changes. How would that affect CV joint geometry any more than the Fox 2.0 set at 2.5 inches or any of the other leveling struts. I am not an engineer but would suspect it would be the same.
I installed with a friend of mine. No spring compressor, you just bolt the spacer to the top of the of the strut. Once it is attached you can insert and rotate the bottom posts with a strong screw driver or prybar.
I got a hammock style and love it. Only problem, when the truck was just over a month old we were in the mountains hunting grouse after a some rain the night before. I load him into the rear and he decides to shake. Has mud splattered throughout the truck. Everything had mud spots except the...
Because of the size, thinking not at this time. I will probably poke around and see what it would take to ship them. If I can do it I will let you know.
I am running the 2.5 from Ford Ranger Lifts and have been happy. They are solid. I am not so sure about those Amazon ones, but they are cheap.

I have driven most of the competitors, albeit through rentals, but I really enjoyed the Ford the most. I did like the frontier also though. I have towed my boat a couple of times now. The combo is anywhere from 3500 to 5000 lbs depending on what is in the boat. Last time I towed I had a full...
@Andy , which leaf pack did you go with. with no gear in the rear of my truck I am hauling an extra 500lbs on my truck with cap, rtt, awning, sliders, ect. I was considering the medium spring but don't want to go too firm either. Curious which ones you ordered and what your current...
that sucks, is it when you hit the brakes and the turn signal or just the turn signal? I just went out and checked mine with the wife and that is not happening. Did they just tap into a line or did they use the wiring kit that taps into your trailers wiring harness? May be an easy fix...
Got mine installed the other day (except the hole I have to drill, need a better bit). Install was pretty easy once I figured out which slider was left and which was right. I had previously removed my factory steps so just had to get them in place and bolt on. Took about an hour to do the...
This is probably the route I will go. I absolutely need more capacity in the rear end and this would handle that task as well as clean up the overall ride compared to stock system. My other thought was the Fox 2.0 with an Add A Leaf set up. Just have to decide and then find the money.
Got a question for those that had steps prior to installing the sliders. In prep for the delivery of my sliders I pulled my factory steps off the truck today. Once you removed the bolts that hold the steps on, did you put them back in or do something else to fill the holes in the body? I was...
