Congrats! Looks like mine. I was going to level the front of mine too, but you also have to change the upper control arms and stuff. So it's not just add a puck spacer and roll on. Instead of tearing my new truck apart we are going to reverse level mine by simply pulling the lift block out of the rear leaf springs.

let me know how will turned out , I have read that people that did that got some vibration
 

Yeah, it should be done towards the end of the month, first of next month. My guy can't get me in any quicker. Plus I have other stuff for him to do. I have read most people don't have any issues. I have always reverse leveled my other trucks with no issues. We will see.
 

Yeah, if you do a leveling kit you have to get new UCA. The ReadyLift kit comes with new UCA. The downside - and the reason I chose not to do a leveling kit after all - is that you cannot put your truck into the Auto 4WD mode. I like using the Auto mode when it’s rainy or potentially icy out… so not being able to use it is a no-go for me.

I’m not 100% sure, I just know on the website it says that they highly recommend not using the auto 4WD setting. I haven’t cared enough to email them and ask why lol

From their internal replies on the site:

We don't suggest 4wd auto to be used due to the larger lift and tires you can see a vibration that is caused by the vehicle sending too much torque to the front driveshaft as it can no longer determine how much is needed. That applies to any lift or tire combination. not just ours. You can run 4wd auto and should not cause any issue with the truck but would have the vibration issue. If you run it in 2wd, 4hi or 4low it shouldn't have any vibration.

I am running their kit and I pulled the lower spacer as it doesn't fit the AT4X - haven't had any vibration issues or noticeable anything to be of concern running in Auto.

He said something interesting about the shock adjustment needed due to the dramamax weight versus the "5.3" (but i think he meant the 6.2). I've always wondered why some AT4's appear to have more rake than others and i've always wondered if the 3.0 diesel was just heavier than the 6.2 causing the additional rake. Anyone agree?
