Question on levelling. (1 Viewer)

No one is saying to build a truck so putting a feather in the back causes squat. You can level it and still have hundreds of pounds of cargo capacity without causing the rear to drop dangerously or noticeably.

Cars don't come from the factory with "rake" and you can throw 300 pounds of dog food in the back and squeeze 5 passengers and they pretty much maintain the same ride height and stance.

Even when you do load it to the point of suspension sag, BFD. It's a means to an end. It'll be okay. Hell, I somehow managed to drive this leveled, overloaded (with everything we owned), and temporarily squatting 4R coast to coast when we moved - and I didn't die, and have no recollection of anyone laughing hysterically at me along the way.

Hopefully you didn’t drive that at night.

I agree. Don't "level." It's already level. There's supposed to be more space above the rear wheel well than the front. If you lift the front and not the rear, it looks stupid. There are plenty of 460s in my area that have done this and they look ridiculous, like squatted trucks.

If you want a lift, lift it properly.
