Lift & leveling kit options

That looks like a tophat lift. I'm specifically looking for a preload lift which Readylift makes but for 2.5" upfront.
That's correct... I see where you said pre-load, but you'd have to sweet talk RL or Westcott (or similar) to see if they would sell you just the collar. I thought about machining down Wescott's collar because I like the under spring placement better than RL on top. Not sure it matters, but none-the-less ended up with Dobinsons.
It's hard for me to understand this desire to level the truck because as soon as you load some stuff in the cargo area the rear will sag and you will feel like you are on a speedboat with a view of the sky instead of the road... Much better to have a bit of rake towards the front in my opinion.
Mine sits dead level now with my homemade platform, recovery gear, etc in the back. I wouldn’t mind lifting both front and rear about 1-1/2” or so. Haven’t seen anything to accomplish this.
I have a similar sentiment.
Can anyone (perhaps you winnrider if you've gone down this rabbit hole) provide best lift/level kits + upsize tires for someone who cares more about looks than function (90%city driving)?
shock setups look sexier than lift spacers bro. With the wheel well gap u can’t avoid looking at the suspension package. It’s like like wearing gray sweat pants in the winter
I settled on Ko2s 33s (275/60/20) no lift/spacers. I’m in the woods every week and no issues. When I upgrade it will be full on suspension. The spacer lifts look pretty labor intensive for no perceivable difference in stance. Now if I was a rock crawler, totally different approach. Put some chunky shoes on that girl and you will be a ok. Did 400 miles to Florida and it rides like a town car.
I want to go this exact route, KO2s at 275/60/20. So you don’t get any rub at all with stock suspension/no lift/no spacers? Thanks!
None. At all.
