I thought I was decided on the 2.5" Rough Country spacer lift but now I have a question. Is it just me or the angle of the pics or is the front end higher than the rear ever so slightly? Any info would be greatly appreciated

Looks good. What size tires are those? And is the ride close to stock?

Looks good How many miles on it and how do you like the ride?
I have 17k miles on it and rides the same as the day I had it done, pretty smooth and the tires are wearing super even but then they have been rotated every 5k

Is the ride close to stock? Are those 35s?

37s.

And no, there is some difference in the ride. But, it’s super minor. I think the suspension is slightly stiffer. The lift had very little difference.

However, the 37s are noticeable.

Wouldn’t change a thing, though.

Good to know. Thanks. Did you add any parts to the kit such as steering stabilizer or anything,? What load rating on your tires?

Nope. Not required.

It’s drives great for having 37s. Just don’t expect it to be exactly like stock. Lifting any vehicle & adding massive tires is going to reduce on-road performance.

I recommend you go to the local dealership and/or local Offroad shop and ask if you can drive one of their/ demo vehicles.

No idea what load rating they are...

Not a true 35, the are BFG 315 KO2’s that measure 34.5” from ground to crown but I run the pressure at 28-29 cold so it’s closer to 34.25”
