A modification package designed for the specified vehicle model aims to reduce or eliminate the factory rake. This rake is the intentional difference in height between the front and rear suspension, typically resulting in the front sitting lower than the rear. These kits generally include components such as spacers or replacement shocks that raise the front of the truck to match the height of the rear. For example, a 2-inch front lift can even out the stance of the vehicle, creating a more level appearance.
The appeal of this type of modification lies in its enhancement of the vehicle’s aesthetics, providing a more balanced profile. Furthermore, it may allow for the installation of larger tires, improving off-road capabilities and providing a more aggressive look. Historically, truck owners have employed various methods to achieve a more level stance, but these purpose-built kits offer a more refined and predictable outcome compared to improvised solutions.
