Hey! Could you have gotten 3” in there? I’m thinking of putting in the Rough Country 3” loaded Strut assembly in a truck exactly like this one. By the way you just made a lot of other guys who disassembled brakes, axles, lower control arms etc. look pretty silly! 😂

Honestly 3inch is gonna be pretty tough! It’s doable, but it won’t be easy lol. That’s also gonna be hard on 4wd CV axles especially on hard turns while in 4wd. Thanks man hopefully it helped

May just do the 2” then and see how she sits. If it comes out like yours I’ll be happy.

I have a 2022 F150, I wanna add a 2” leveling kit. When you did the front, did you have to remove the 4x4 lines going to the wheel hub? I’d be afraid if I left them attached and it would stretch the lines out or something, so I don’t wanna damage it

No I did not, but it is just a line with two holes that slide off, you can remove if need be!

What specific Fuel wheels are they? Looks great!

Hi Kevin, thanks for the comment these are 18” Fuel coverts with -12mm offset!! Glad you like them I’m a big fan so far!

Have you had any issues with the lower bushing on the strut? I was told spinning that bushing might give you issues in the future. I’m just wondering if you’ve had issues cause I just installed my leveling kit the exact same way as you but right now it’s all good.

Did you ever think of a spring compressor?

There's nothing in this video i would need a spring compressor for. The top hat simply goes on top of the already loaded strut. With a pry bar and removing the shock stud, it goes in very easy.

@TuneNgoon I was just thinking about removing and installing the strut, and not having to fight getting it out and back in, or remove the lower bolts on the strut.

@@ItsMeJbird you could... but you would need to compress the gas charged strut even with the spring compressed. Either option could work. Most spring compressors are cheaply made and sketchy to use. I prefer this method!

​@@TuneNgoonWith the spring compressed a bit, wouldn't you be able to get a pry bar under the end of the strut in the LCA and compress it easily with a bar?

This is a 4wd model. But you could also level a 2wd the same way

Just drop the bottom strut studs in first, then the top and you won’t have to pull the bottom studs out.😮

You know, you could've just swapped the left strut for the right stut and then you don't have to clock anything.

@TuneNgoon this only works on the puck style that swaps the studs around though. There are offset style kits that have the new studs directly over the strut studs and don't require swapping or clocking.
