Does my Ranger have a leveling kit?

[SaberRanger]

I bought my Ranger used with 5,000 miles from a dealer almost two years ago.

It was a one owner but they didn’t really have any info from the previous owner.

I have been told twice by my ford dealer when I have had it in for oil changes that it has a leveling kit installed but I don’t know for certain.

One guy just was complimenting me how good the truck looked with it leveled and the last time I had it in they said it needed an alignment because of the kit.

I have no idea if it does or not but I’m sure if it does and I wanted to see what you guys think.

The previous owner put 265/70/17 BFG K02 tires on it and they don’t rub or anything.

I am not exactly sure what to look for in the front suspension to see if it has a leveling kit.

Yes it does. A 2.5” spacer lift of unknown origin looks like.

Awesome, probably no way to tell what brand I have right?

I doubt they stamp the parts.
It doesn’t matter, I’m just curious

Yes it does, looks about as level as mine does. Great color choice too! ?

Thats a Rough Country 2.5" Spacer kit, and the truck does look good.

Mine came with front spacers as well. We probably lose an MPG, but the truck looks better than these ass high stock Rangers I see.

I just read a review that said you should readjust my headlights. I do get flashed a lot from other drivers, do I need to adjust them?

is the Rough Country a good kit?

Yes you'll need to adjust them. It's easy, here's a thread where you can see how to do it.

For a spacer kit the RC kit is good. I've had mine on for 2 years and 18,000 miles now. Replacing the shocks with ones that are adjustable would be much better but the level kit is the cheapest way out.

In my opinion most spacer kits are created equal. Rough Country's hard parts are as good or better than alot of other companies.

Looking good - def looks like the RC kit - had it on mine for a year - no issues but had to adjust my headlights. Doesn’t affect handling or performance but it sure looks good.

You also have a great set of tires on the truck. They’re about as big as you can go without issues, so don’t get any crazy ideas about going bigger unless you want to start spending a bunch more money and modifying crash bars. ?

Looks great as it is - now, go wheel the pants off it.

I used Rough Country spacers on my Silverado. No complaints there for 20,000 miles.

Debating if I am going to level my Ranger or not...

Yes I had to adjust the headlight aim as the first time I drove it after installing the level kit I got flashed by every car that I met , lol.
I also think I need to shim the radar in the bumper as my adaptive cruise doesn't seem to be as good as before. It's probably looking too far ahead now. Not sure what to do about the lane keeping as it uses the camera in the windshield .

I thought it was a trick question, like: “Do these jeans make my butt look fat”? ?
