Leveling Kit

Can you run a tire wider than 11" with the SPC's on oem wheels? Seemed like mixed responses when I read through some posts about those and the rancho's.

I would think so, I have 285s with OEM wheels and have plenty of clearance.
 
What is the reason that this Rough Country kit...

2.5 INCH LIFT KIT FORD F-150 TREMOR 4WD (2021-2023)​

I called them and asked about this today and they told me it will through a light for vehicles equipped with BlueCruise and it will not work.
 
Several others are running this kit with no issues.
 
I combed this thread specifically to see if it would work with Bluecruise and didn't see anyone say that it does. @Escape Hatch said he's do the 2 inch and report back but I didn't see a response when I read through it. Between that and RC telling me it doesn't work I'll wait for a first hand experience.

I suspect they are saying this as a disclaimer. Bluecruise should work no matter the angle of the sensors relative to the road (within reason) since it is designed to work when you have a full bed load/heavy tongue weight.

That said, @Cranbery experienced an incident with his adaptive cruise possibly caused by his level (which I believe is RC but brand should be irrelevant). Of the MANY of us who are running other-than-stock suspension his is the only issue I think I have seen and even that was not definitively caused by the suspension.
 
Yeah I get that. They told me Blue Cruise won't work with the 2.5 kit and that is the only information I have right now. I've already used it on a few long road trips and it isn't a feature I plan on giving up having been spoiled by it now. That being said I'm still strongly considering HaloLifts, I was just trying to explore other possibilities before I committed to it. Thanks!

I'd strongly recommend the HaloLift.

Several on here are running that exact lift, @Cranbery has verified that his blue cruise does still work as it should, the only thing I would recommend is anyone getting a lift have your sensors and cameras realigned. To prevent issues like what may have caused @Cranbery issue.
 
I haven’t seen anyone post information about the Ford Fox 2.0. I just purchase the Tremor and the dealership put on the Fox. Truck rides better and it lifted the front at least 2”. See pictures
This is the kit I’m having installed. How do you like it so far? I was going to do a ready lift puck lift, but my guy here that does work on my trucks refused to put that on lol.
 
I am going with the fox performance 2.0. I had ordered a ready lift spacer kit but canceled that order.

My installer was appalled by that decision and talked me into what he believes is a better option. He refuses to install spacer lifts at his shop.

Give us a full ride report when all said and done.

Absolutely! I’m actually kind of nervous only because I can’t find anyone with a tremor online running this set up in the front. Just kind of trusting the installer .
 
I just had the Bilstein 6112s installed in the front and it looks great. It has just a slight rake to it but the ride is so nice. I am really happy with how the truck feels with the Bilsteins.

I’m sure you’ll be fine, fox is a very high quality coilover. I’ve ran icon 2.5’s and currently halolifts 2.0 and although I prefer the halos I’m not gonna say it’s a drastic difference in ride quality but it is smoother. I’m sure the fox 2.0 are probably just as good.

Awesome! You use the factory spring? And how high did you lift?

Sweet! Yea I like that I can use the factory springs.

So are you 2 inch higher in the front now?

Better for his pocket book for sure.

Great customer service, guys sounds like a total Dbag.

No I didn’t use the factory springs. I used the springs that came with the Bilsteins and they are cranked all the way up. I think it’s like 2.5 inches.
 
Went with AS2.5" spacer. Rides same as stock, no issues with ride or adaptive cruise either, sits level!
Ford Aligned it for Free/Warranty work too.
