2" Rough Country Level

I put 1.5 spacers under the rear coil springs to get it sitting where it wasn't nose high. View attachment 43905

That’s sharp!!What spacer did you use and did you change rear shocks?

Use any 4th generation spacer for the rear. No shocks are fine its only about a 1 1/4 higher then it was .

When you installed 1 1/2 rear spacer did you change rear shocks or have to relocate rear track bar?

No with the weight in the truck it only gave it about a inch. Shocks are not over extended.

Now that you've put some miles on the struts and they've settled in, can you speak for the ride quality?

Rides good ,not rough at all.

Keep in mind the North package comes with a factory 1” lift due to longer springs. The RC quick lift struts will only give you an additional inch as a result.

So is it fair to say then that if you have the ORP springs/struts and swap to the 3.5” RC N3 lifted struts, then you’d gain only 2.5”? I have a Built to Serve which has the 1” ORP lift. I’m looking for 2”-2.5” of lift and if this is the case, it might be perfect for my needs. Thanks

Correct. The 3.5" struts would offer you ~2.5" of lift since they would be replacing the ORP setup.

Great answer by the shop owner! Say NO to preload spacers. He said that because you’ll be back in a week blaming him for the sh!tty ride quality. That dude’s been down that road lol

Did you use the RC n3 3.5'? i have a Built to Serve too and I'm deciding if I go for the 2' RC loaded strut or 3.5'. Please let me know. thanks!
