Top perch/methods 2013. PICS!

[BRAPPPP]

Had the top perch and methods put on the day after I bought the truck.
The only problem I have is that the back end measures about 44 in and the front end measures 43 1/2 in. Why is the front end still lower?!

Doesn't look lower to me? Looks nose high. Measure the body crease line on the front and then the same spot in the crease on the back between the flares.

You mean the white body part where the door line is?

The crease under the 6.2L badge. It starts on The front fender but just start at the front edge of the front door. And end at the rear edge of the extended cab door. The crease may not be true on the box but the crease on the doors should be.

I did the same. Top perch. Also went with the national 1 inch over rear springs. Sits real level. Also did the rcv axles. Just because don't want a cv failure.

I just said that cause top perch. After 5 broken CV shafts it was either aftermarket shocks or mid perch for me.
mid perch looks meh... on my truck so went KIng's set to half a inch lower than top perch on fox's. Haven't broken a single cv yet

I got my Raptor and did the top perch the first week after I got it. Took and got it aligned, no cams or bolts needed. Drove it 2K miles across th country towing a 4500lb trailer and had no issues. Still going strong at 7500 miles no tire wear issues or anything else. I wheel my truck pretty hard and use the 4X4 almost every week. You might get lucky like I did

measure from the center of the wheel to the top of the wheel well. NOT from the ground to the wheel well. If you measure from the center of the wheel it doesn't matter what tires you have, what rims you have, what tire pressure you have, you can compare measurements across trucks. You measure from the ground up, even tire pressure affects the measurement you'll get.
