FYI - I called Fox and talked to a support engineer. They do NOT, I repeat NOT advise anyone to put this kit on a 2021. It works fine on a 2020 but the weight and geometry of the 21 is different and it’s possible this will actually damage you’re new truck. They said they’re engineering one specific for the 2021 but it will not be out until later this year.
Do you think that there will be an aftermarket air bag kit or lift kit for the 2022 F150 Lightning? I like my trucks to have a slight rake or be a bit higher on the back to counter the truck from squatting after connecting a trailer.
I’m having a hard time getting my 2021 f150 aligned. My Ford dealership said they can’t do it because Ford hasn’t released the alignment specs yet? Any recommendations?
Leveling kits don’t change the ride at all. There is no change to the shocks or springs of the stock F150. These kits simply space the shock a couple of inches lower than stock which in turns raises the truck the same amount.
Nice video, as usual. Can you comment on these particular leveling kits as they affect : (1) Stock Ford suspension parts and appropriate suspension geometry/travel, and (2) Ford 360 and Copilot 2.0 assist?

I'm new in the leveling kit world. I just bought a F150 Tremor 2023 and I would like to install a leveling kit on it. But I always have lots of stuff in the box of my truck plus I often tow my 16 foot trailer with 2 quad's so I'm scared that it will look weird if I lift just the front.

If going by tire size, at what point do you recommend an actual lift vs a level for the ‘21 my’s? I know and recall you mentioning crash bars being a consideration. I’m trying to recall back to what was done for that silver Platinum F150 y’all did where you made it stealthy awesome. Just enough height to be different, but not standout or obnoxious.
The last ROUSH by Fox 2.0 kit does not come with a moded cam and follower for camber adjustments on this lift. Can the camber adjustment be made well within specs without them, and if so, why did the Ready Lift 2" lift (leveling) kit come with the modified cam and follower?
After watching a few of your videos, I found, I'm liking the leveling better than the lift process. Mitch you should workout with C-love at least 2 days a week. Being behind the camera is taking it's toll. Just a thought.💪
Might be a dumb question, but after the install of a leveling kit, is a standard alignment ok, or would you need to take the truck to a shop that deals with lifted/leveled vehicles? I ask because my brother had his ‘19 Ram leveled and aligned and is having premature (front) tire wear. The shop he took it to said he needed to take it to a shop that specializes in alignments for lifts/levels. Will be ordering a kit from y’all soon for my ‘21 KR!
Zone's claim about the 2-piece improving ride, etc sounds like BS to me. Wouldn't putting a spacer under the tophat add more preload to the spring resulting in a firmer ride? It also adds zero lift so it's only the top spacer that would provide any leveling.
