No problem! I'm definitely happy with the look. Now your rig has me wanting to shove some 285's under there... that extra meat looks ?.
Thanks! And you definitely have enough clearance now if you decide to do it??

I’ve read some conflicting reviews. So if anyone with tremor level experience could enlighten me that would be awesome.
Does the 2 inch level sit perfectly level or slightly tail heavy? Seems like a lot? I’ve seen some forums show a 1 inch making it level and some stating the 2 inch does.
I’m torn between 1 & 2 inch level for mine.
No towing and basically only toss bikes in the bed. Goal is to just increase front ground clearance and have less rake.
thanks guys.

IMO, the truck sits perfectly level now. I believe the 1" kit still maintains a bit of rake.

My rear fenders are 2" higher than the fronts stock, however my pinch welds are 1-1.25" higher in the rear stock.

That's why I like the 1" level.

Can someone please "school" an old guy? Why wheel spacers, other than looks? I get the level kit...but what do the spacers do? Are they lock-tighted on?

Wheel spacers can help run a wider tire without rubbing on the spindle. Some do it for that, some do it for the look or to have a wider track width.

I personally put mine on and will continue to run them when I get 34’s once the factory grabbers wear out. I loc-tited mine on, torqued to 100 ft pounds, then re-torqued 100 miles later.

do ya have any pictures ? I just received the 1” from FordLift and contemplating whether to exchange it for the 2”…

However I do want a little rake instead of full leveled look so maybe I should be stick with 1”.

rookie question.. does one inch level means the front will be lifted by one inch (if u measure from top of tire to fender) or is it even more in inches ?

thanks

I won't lie my main motivation for 1" wheel spacers was for the look and yeah, theoretical better handling due to wider width but I was pleasantly surprised to notice an improvement in towing! Around town it feels the same but with a stance I think Ford should have shipped the Tremor with. While towing, for sure helped enough that it was worth the $250 or so I paid.

My spacers said to not lock tight them on, but you torque them just like your wheels so it is not needed. We don't lock tight our wheels on, so it makes sense. I do check them on rotations but no issues so far.

I would say this is why you want quality spacers which come with quality hardware.

I left the bar on mine until my white knuckle sliders showed up yesterday. Either way won’t make much of a difference, it is useless as a step with just the bar

I installed the 1 1/2" Truxxx level kit, it sits perfectly level IMO.

Curious if you have pictures of the actual spacers before installing? Last time I checked I dont think they had them on the site. I went 1" though but was curious.
