I am trying to decide which route to go on perch collars between 1" icon or 1.5" rpg

Looking to bring the front up but maybe keep it about 0.25" lower than rear, hard to tell in a lot of pics on the forum but it looks like the rpg collar might bring the front up slightly higher than the rear.

Was hoping some of you could post some straight profile (side) pics of your leveled raptors. Thanks.

I have a 1.5 RPG coming should be here hopefully today if not for sure tomorrow. I will take a before and after picture once I install. I am waiting on my wheels so not sure when the install will take place.

Not a problem, In case I forget to post pics here I have a thread called "The Build Begins" in the general discussions GEN 2 section where I will update with pics of parts and before and after pictures all the time as I go.

I will try not to forget however and maybe someone else will be kind enough to post some pics

I've got the 1.5" RPG and depending on the ground level its either level or still slightly nose down. I'm contemplating on moving on to something different or going up to the 2.25" RPG. Having trouble posting a pic right now though.

This is with RPG 1.5” perch collar. Nose sits a smidge lower than the rear.

No def the nose is sitting lower in those pics a bit. Very slight tho. I like the look I will go ahead and get mine installed this week if possible.

It's definitely lower by about 1/4". I even measured after initial installment and again a couple of weeks ago to see if they have settled. There has not been any change or movement. They are easy to install too.
