RPG lift installed. Measuring from the fender lip to the center of the wheel, it's perfect. Same distance front and back. Thanks RPG. You nailed it, and, the quality is second to none.

Any noticeable difference in ride quality? I've got a shop by me that does a lot of truck mods and when I mentioned the perch adjustment the guy behind the counter insisted on a leveling kit (I personally don't care to go that route) because of the complaints about ride quality suffering with a perch mod. Seems perch mods are the way to go from everything I've read on this forum.

Btw, truck looks great! I have a black Scab that I would like to level.

On Gen1 there was a pretty substantial difference in ride quality when going to mid perch. ride was much stiffer.

I think the RPG collar gets it pretty darn level. I don't think I would want to go any higher. It has settled after 250 miles on frost heaved roads and now the rear is 1/4" higher than the front. Looks perfect.
