Originally my plan was to take the conservative approach and do their 1.5/1 kit because with some of the pictures I've seen of GOAT's 2/1 kit they almost look slightly nose high and I really don't like how a rig looks when it's nose high. Even if they're barely nose high it bugs the shit out of me. But, my wife's RR (Casper) has been parked next to my Rubicon way to much lately and with its lift and 37's it dwarfs Casper soooo I made the executive decision to order the 2/1 kit instead of the 1.5/1 kit.

Hopefully I didn't just screw myself because I'll never hear the end of it if this thing ends up being slightly nose high. GOAT says it won't but some of the pics I've seen sure look like they're a tick higher in the front.

Any of you with the GOAT 2/1 kit want to clear this up for me so I don't stress about it for the next few weeks till it gets here and installed.....

If you see a Raptor that has a 2/1" that looks nose high, it will be because the rear has been sagged due to extra weight/accessories. Its technically impossible for a factory setup with a 2/1" spacer kit to sit nose high.

You can also do 2" front 1.5" rear for more rake if that suits you better.

I myself never wanted the "Level" look. I regularly carry weight in the bed and never want that nose up look. So I went with the Goat 1.5" F / 1.5" R lift for height increase, maintaining rake/handling and clearance for slightly bigger tires (34").

If I would have done the 2" Front for fitting 35" tires I'd absolutely do the 1.5" Rear lift and just never have to worry about it .

You could always hold off on installing them and just get the 1.5" inch spacers for the rear. You can always sell your 1" spacers to someone who wants em for their front. Goat sells F/R spacer packages and all the spacers individually.

I'm not seeing an option to order 1.5" rear pucks on your site, just the 1" rears. How does someone order the 2/1.5 combo? Any gotchas with this, like how a 2.5" up front guarantees you'll need UCAs?

Thanks.
