I did a 2" lift because my measurements indicated that mine would have about 5/8" difference measured from the ground, from back to front with 2". I personally like just a wee bit of rake.
Also, at the time I did mine, the Roush/Fox 2.0 was the only product that I was certain would fit on the 2021's.

I think it is just a matter of preference. How big do you want to go and how much factory rake do you want to eliminate? Here is what factors I had to consider.

1.) How much taller can I go without causing me issues getting into the garage?
2.) How much height do I need to fit the desired tires (285/65-20)?
3.) I want to keep some of the rake in the truck, how much level will allow me to do so?

Again, just a matter of preference and desire for what you want your truck to look like.

THE SET UP IS WAS WANTING ARE 285/75/18 TIRE WHICH IS 33.9 TALL WITH A 18 X9 RIM AND A +12 MM OFFSET JUST NOT SURE IT WOULD FIT. THIS IS WHY I WANTED A 2.5 LEVEL THANKS

Did you mean 34.9"? Here are your tires compared to mine. I think you would be very comfortable at 2.25" or 2.5" with those wheels, but check with your tire/wheel provider.

I was told by dealer when I picked mine up that they could not install due to ride height sensor on A arm-Ready lift has a 2' kit that will work but they said computer had to be re-flashed. Did you have any problems with your lift? Thanks, Tom

I didn't have a bit of problem with mine. Everything worked, lane keeping, the headlights auto-adjusted, etc.
