‘19 with 2.5” lift, now rides horrid

For what it's worth, I don't think this works. I confirmed with forscan the vdm still thought the truck was floating 2" in the air after trying this a few times. I had the dealership run the calibration procedure on the vdm and it seems to ride a little less stiff and is now zeroed.

Lose the spacer kit before it gets ugly if you go off road. I'd go with Eibach springs.

X2^^

i went with eibachs and the ride is great. Not gonna be 2.5” on your ‘19 tho

Any help will be appreciated. I had a Professional installation of the Readylift 2.5” front leveling kit. Mounted 37” BFG KO2’s and had new alignment to Readylift specs. Now when I hit a reasonable bump on the interstate it’ll knock your fillings out of your teeth. I mean almost losing control of the truck...

I’m running 36 psi in the front tires and 34 psi in the rear.

The place who installed them is not familiar with Raptors or they would not have done it. Find another shop and have them remove the front leveling kit and replace it with Geisers for the same 2.5" of lift. In the back, I would go with Deaver +3s to raise it up by about 1" to keep a small amount of rake. You will have to do a minor amount of trimming in the front wheel wells, but you should be good with 37s for normal driving.

Shocker! Cheap ass lift spacer what did you expect? The good news is that you get to pay again to have it done correctly. Lose the spacer and change the springs.

Harsh..... but correct.

Could always go with a Gieser progressive spring too! Why no Geiser love in this thread?

Worst part is the Readylift kit is more than Eibachs.

Well, not exactly...if you look at the TireRack link that you sent, they have the same ReadyLift kit (2 options below the Eibachs) for $169 instead of the MSRP $269.95. But, still...the $56 additional price to replace the springs rather than put a spacer kit in is WELL worth it!

If you look two posts above yours, someone recommends Geisers...

It's truly a shame what some people do to these trucks.

That spacer throws off you upper control arm geometry , so every bump, upward movement changes your toe angle in and out severely . causing a ton of bump steer.

Cancel the spacer and do it right! Plus if you offroad these other springs will help you
