      Thanks Michael, it's not the easiest filming and doing these project but I do think it helps a couple people out!

    Every time you finish what you’re saying, your last few words you would slow down and extend the words like your singing it… lol. I like you video, I couldn’t stop noticing it though 😂

    I am interested in installing the exact lift on my Expedition. Wondering, two years later how is the Expedition handling the ReadyLift, any problems with tire wear or other components failing?

  • @tedwillard1595
    @tedwillard1595 3 роки тому +1

    IMO, these ReadyLIFT kits make the rear look like it is sagging. Most trucks come from the factory with a rake angle that has an appearance of the front being lower than the rear; however, the Expeditions already come with a level appearance. So, with trucks other than the Expedition, you may wish to level and lift the vehicle by raising the front more than the rear, hence the 3" front lift but only 2" rear lift. But, since the Expeditions already appear level from the factory, raising the front 3" and the rear only 2" gives the rear a sagging appearance, again, IMO. You can see this in the before and after measurements as well, with the before measurements being equal and the after measurements showing the front higher than the rear. Do you agree? What appearance do you prefer?

    • @GasTachs
      @GasTachs  3 роки тому +1

      Yes I would agree. It would have been better for just 2” all around because you won’t be able to fit a 3” in the rear.

      Ride didn’t change, but my legs are getting strong with the extra height. The wildpeaks are the best! No highway noise. Great for snow, much and road! I have them on all my 4x4 and camper
