To me it’s a story of the three bears ?

Stock is too much rake and wheel gap

35”s with the lift is too high. (Looks great, just not for me)

34”s with level - JUUUSSSSTTTT RIGHT!!! ?
I agree with you on the 34's even though both leveled trucks look really good. My line of thinking is the 20's are too much wheel and not enough sidewall to get the look I'm going for. That's why I ordered mine with 18's. I'm still planning on running 35's.

Can you tell me what your highest point is on your cab?
77.5". There are two sensors on the back of the cab that stick up about 2". Not sure what they're for.

I think those are antennas. It should still fit in my garage as long as that 77.5 includes those two sticky upey things on the back of the cab.

Yes, I measured to the top of those.

Wow, that is good news. I think a standard garage door is 84". I measured 82" of clearance with the door open, so still in good shape.

Leveling kit and bigger tires looks nice. Did you happen to take any measurements after the leveling kit? Wondering if the 2.25" level is perfectly level or if there is a slight rake left?
Anything OP? Trying to decide on a 2" or 2.25" level. Thanks.

No worries man! So you still have approximately 1.5" of rake? Or was the before measurements?

Those measurements are with the leveling kit. There is a noticeable amount of rake still.

Looks nice! I wanna level mine with these:
https://www.roughcountry.com/ford-vertex-coilovers-689012.html?find=2021-ford-f-150-4wd-755265

Preserving ride quality is important, hence the coil overs. Cant decide on on 33x11.5 or going 34's and dealing with the speedometer discrepancy.
Those look sweet! Let us know how they do.

My radar detector displays GPS speed...with factory tires it was dead on with the speedo...with the 35's I show to be running about 4MPH faster than the speedo.

I've measured the rake on a couple different stock trucks. The Sport is 3.5" different between front and rear and the FX4 is 4."

Tuff Country has a 3”, that’s what I have on my 2018 and what I was thinking for my ‘21. Anyone have any thoughts?

I'm wondering what the CV angles will be at with that. I would also think getting up into 3" area you might need new upper control arms.
I was waiting to see if ReadyLift updates their 3.5" SST kit to fit the 2021.
