All Three brands are pretty reputable when it comes to lifts, It just falls down to personal preference and what's in your budget.

Blackbear Performance Tunes are kinda the gold standard when it comes to our vehicles, I don't think I'v seen anyone on here have any problems with them, nothing but praise. They offer custom tunes instead of generic Preset ones, so they can recal your speedometer for 33's, Disable AFM, and much much more. pretty much whatever you can think of they can do.

+1 for Blackbear, game changer. I used a hypertech initially, was ok for Afm disable but transmission shifts never felt right. I also did custom tunes on my f-150 with an edge/griffin, none compared to the Blackbear tune. They know their stuff.

2019 LS 4x4 Custom Midnight, 1.5" front level. I cant stand a nose high truck so played it safe with the 1.5" looks perfect for me.

What brand leveling kit did you use? I want to level ours as well, plus trim down the front airdam. I'm probably due for shocks as well. Hoping to add skid plates asap as well.

I used the maxracing 1.5" kit off amazon. If you are planning on replacing the shocks, you're better off just getting the Bilstien 5100's as they are height adjustable. If my truck wasnt brand new thats what I would have done (its what I did on my Ram) Also trimmed the front air dam.

Thanks brother. Just popped the front wheels off. Went with the suspension max for the mag ride since they're still going strong.

Hoping to get 1.75" up front tonight if possible, then I can get the atturos on and aligned.

Running the 5100s in my Tahoe and they're firmer than I'd like. Haven't tried them on a coilover yet. You like em compared to mag-ride? I like the how mag ride handles on this XL

Trimmed the front air dam over lunch freehand. Liking the extra clearance a lot

Trimming the airdam makes such a huge difference. I'm going to cut mine down this weekend as well.

Most difficult part was the connectors for the magnetic ride control sensors. Had to use an angled pliers to try get them back together. Had my 6y/o hang on a short pry bar to slip in the lower strut spacers in. Decent stance on the 1.75". Next is alignment and tires mount/balance.

33x12.5 mounted and balanced. Haven't had a chance to put'er through the paces in reverse yet.
