Leveling Kit

[Luna_actual]

Has anyone figured out what leveling kits work on the tremor? Will standard F-150 parts fit? Removing some of that rake will be my goal as soon as possible when I take delivery of my truck. I am looking to go the easy route with a 1.5” or 2” spacer kit on the struts. I don’t want to remove the rake completely, but from the pictures the way Ford is sending this out from the factory makes it look like they forgot to install the 1” lift parts on the Tremor with 3-4” of rake.

If you know what fits please let me know!
Thanks

Disappointed with the rake but the forum as been useful.

I just installed the “ Mammoth 2.50-Inch Front Leveling Kit (15-22 F-150, Excluding Raptor)” kit on my 2021 F150 Tremor. I bought it from American Trucks. I had to rotate the shocks in order to keep the leaving kit to fit. It shouldn’t cause issues but i would’ve rather kept it facing the original direction i pulled them off. Shocks appear to be the same in every direction. I’ll monitor closely and i may pull it if there’s noise and go with an Icon shock replacement(a little pricey though).

I will post pictures today of the end result to give everyone a better idea.

Do we know how thick the factory blocks are ? I just got my rough country kit and the blocks are missing guess they forgot to ship. The guy said they are to bring the back up I was under the understand that ppl arnt running them.to lower the rear down ?? They are just 14 to 19 kit on the front

Rear blocks are 2" on mine but i heard someone else measured at 1.5" and another at 2.5"

I spoke to RC about their kit and walked away with the impression that their strut is no better about as good as stock from their employee’s opinion. I didn’t want to possibly end up replacing a stock part with a less inferior part to gain my 2.5 lift so I opted for the Auto spring 2.5 and it feels just as bouncy and responsive as stock only higher. RC has a history of product failures from what I read so I feel good about my decision. If there was a $1200 to $1500 option I would of gone straight to that. I’m not looking to drop $4-$5k on suspension.

Any chance you have a pic or two, I was hoping to go the same route

I've got these going in on Friday! They promise no change to the ride so we'll see.

Went with the same kit as well. No change in ride quality whatsoever.

Nice! Did you do anything to the rear? Have you measured what your block height is? I am 2" but others have said theirs is different.

Looks great. What size tires are you running?

Rear remains stock. Not sure on block size off the top would have to take a peek.

I can 100% confirm, the 2.5 auto spring kit ride is still 100%, I'm very happy 2 weeks in.

They look pretty beefy

I don’t know what to tell you… So how many springs do you have? Grab a picture — let’s see what the difference is.

Do you have this setup — one leaf with a composite helper?

You could jump up on the rear bumper with a buddy or two and see if you can get the shocks to settle down to 42.5”. They may be just stiff being new and from the factory.

Here is mine to compare (back right) — 3 springs:

The bottom pic is my setup too. What is the height of your block? 2" here on mine.

I would prefer to swap the rear block out from 2.5” to 1.5” if that is the case until I see a great front lift kit that is good enough to off road and not break the bank. Taking 1” off the rear will help with the rake and keep the factory ride. Perhaps some Tremor owners can measure their blocks?

I had the Readylift 2" spacer installed and it reduced the rake. Changed wheels, adder fender flares, and other cosmetic items.

Where did you get the hood decals and what exactly did you have the bumpers painted in order to match so well (sorry if this was already asked)? This has to be one of the best looking Tremors on here!

OH NO, Toyota guys are have the top shock bolts break on the RC Vertex. I was really hoping these would be good.

Any chance it's a one-off?

Several posted they had done it. All Toyota rear shocks, they did post they liked the ride. One guy posted they are rebranded Radflo's and the Radflo's did it as well. They look to be pin top mounted, we don't have that mount on our trucks. So that's a plus. As of now this is what I was going to run, unless something else comes out before my truck is built. I still have days, weeks or months for something else to hit the market.

Where did you order these from? Are these Tremor specific? The ones I’m seeing on Stage3 just say F150

I've got a pair of eibachs on the way after yeti's glowing review. I'll be sure to report on my pavement princess's ride quality
