are you going to do anything to level the front out?

A friend of mine installed the same shocks on his f-150, and loved them. He also liked the way it lifted his sagging rear and increased the payload capacity without the sag...keep up the mods

it is the ground. its not level at all. the rear does sit slightly higher but it doesnt bother me. I ve been looking at the new rough country 6'' lift.

Did a little offroading Sunday. im surprised I didn't get stuck at all. We had 2''+ rain on Saturday and at one point i had water on up to my hood. My 4x4 doesn't work and i made it threw 3' of water, deep mud, rocky steep hills and a couple stream crossing so i surprised my self. anyway here are a couple pics ( only managed to get 3). i did get ''stuck'' once because the blazer was past full flex and i had the rear tire off the ground. i just gave it a little push and we were on our way (last pic). Next time im taking a video of the entire trail. Anyone from PA may know this trail. it leads to a swimming hole known as ''blue hole'' of ''creek falls'' in perryoplis.
