AT4 1500 Leveled - now a question

muleymaddness · Jan 31, 2023

I have a question. I just leveled my 1500 AT4 with the 1.75 Ready Lift, which by the way, turned out awesome. I did that and upgraded the tires to Nitto Ridge Grappler 285/70r18 and couldn't be happier with the look of the truck.

My question - does the level change anything with 4wd high, or 4wd low? Does it make the truck more susceptible to something breaking if/when the truck is off road, in the mountains, etc?

My last AT4 I didn't level and had no hesitation taking it off road and in the back country. Since I didn't do the level myself and had it done, it's a touch out of my comfort zone - anything I should be concerned about?

Did you replace the UCA's with lift?

Yes

If you replaced the UCA's you will be fine. I have the same lift with 35's and take it off-road often with no concerns.

Did you have to do any trimming to fit the 285/70R18? How is the spacing on on the tire to the ball joint on the UCA? Doing my 1.75" Readylift level next week and looking at runnign Toyo AT3s, 285/70R18
