I got my Revel links this week so I have my Saturday project ready to go. I want to raise the front but also lower the back a little. From the instructions, it looks like I need to shorten the links, front and rear to accomplish this. Correct?

Agree - that is correct

Just installed the links and I'm very happy with the outcome. I raised the front and lowered the rear. Went through all 5 settings and no error codes. I'm happy with the ride in Normal but I have the Daystar spacers and will eventually install them as well. Overall I'm very satified.

Go with 35x12.5s. I went with the Toyo RTs due to the treadwear warranty and overall performance but the Nittos are very nice as well. Toyo and Nitto are sister companies.

Btw, I know most people have been using a large screwdriver to pop off the links but if you have a tool like this, it makes things super easy and you’re less likely to break something.

I was more concerned with leveling it out than height. I don't plan to go high on this truck. That's what my Wrangler is for. :)

It's decision time and I need yalls advise. If I use the Daystar spacers and front revel links to raise the front 1.5 inches, would I be able to go with the 285/55r22s (34.6x11.7) ridge grapplers?
I'm ok with light trimming

Did you tweak them or installed them as they were set? That’s exactly the look I’m after.

I had an idea of how much to shorten them based on the discussions here and they shipped close to it so I popped them on as is and it worked out great. I might raise the rear a touch but I'm pretty happy where she sits right now. Here's a better pic than the last one.

Nice. Think I’ll order a set and try them. Any member discounts out there or cheaper places to buy other than their website?

Did you install the Daystar spacers yourself or have them done at a shop? What was the cost to get that done if you don't mind my asking. Thanks.

Went to a local shop recommended by another place that didn't work on air suspension. Charged $300 for installing front links, spacers and rear sway.. great deal IMO
