What kit did you use and how close was it to the promised amount of lift?

ICON 2.5 coilovers. Leveled it perfectly, no adjustments needed. Night day day ride quality as well, much firmer (which I was looking for).

3 inch Readylift Kit, loving it so far. Improved ride quality and firmed up suspension. (non-FX 4x4)

How long have you guys had the lifts on? Any settling after a period of time?

I originally installed the Rough Country 2.5 inch spacer kit. I decided instead to go for the Eibach Pro Leveling kit. Rake is one inch higher in back. That's what I wanted to achieve.

With the Springs you can go up to 3 in. If you don't want three inches, use the stock Springs and you can go up two point two five inches using the Eibach kit . I didn't know this but I think the Eibach kit can be purchased without the springs

Sorry to seem ignorant, but you can dial in the desired amount of lift just with the these struts?

Yes. The struts have indents to set the level height, I set mine at 2.25"

Yep you can buy the shocks and struts separately and save a few bucks that way.

Question please:
Did the kit achieve the full advertised lift of 2.5 inches?
I already bought the same kit from fordrangerlifts and intend to install it onto my soon to be delivered 2020 S/Cab 4x2 with the FX-2 package.
My sole intent is to level out the truck.
Thanks!

Beautiful ride, hopefully, the 2.5 front lift kit I already bought from fordrangerifts will achieve the same evenness on my 2020 S/Cab 4x2.
I see you're a chrome aficionado also, good man! :thumbsup:

On the Eibach’s struts can you adjust them on the truck or do you need to compress the spring?
