2021 Ford F-150 Platinum
Has anyone installed the new Readylift 2 inch level kit specifically designed for the 21’s ? They released it earlier this week but it’s out of stock... also, how bad is the rake on the 21 Platinum fx4 super crew ? Torn on if I want to touch the suspension or just add some 285/60/20 more aggressive tires. The new platinum wheels/tires are awful. Thanks for any advice or pics.

Interested in this myself. If anyone installs it themselves, would you mind taking some photos of the IWEs? Including the solenoid ?

I’m wonder if the 2.25” is really THAT different. I’ve already seen multiple 2021’s claim to have installed the older 2020 RL 2.25” kit which according to readylift, does not fit. Waiting for someone to answer OPs question and post pictures.

I am getting the 2.25 inch readylift one installed by an authorized readylift retailer, a local tire shop. They said that the 21 F150, while different, should still be compatible. Getting it installed on Thursday next week.

What is Ready Lift saying is different? I think they're the ones that say one of their level kits wouldn't work on '20 down FX4's. I've installed enough to know better.

I know it doesn't have 20" platinum wheels, but it gives you the idea.

The kit is out of stock on ready lifts website for the 21... But if you can call them and actually get through to them, they have some in stock. Mine will be here tomorrow.

No. I'll take it to a shop
Gotcha! Is there any chance you could take photos of the IWEs?
Trying to figure out how they work on the '21.

Wtf is an IWE? Lol
LOL, that's twice today. Integrated Wheel End, that was Fords acronym. They are right there behind the steering knuckle where the half shaft goes thru the hub. The tech should be able to point them right out. I'm especially interested in all the lines/hoses going to them, if you will.

Im in a similar dilemma. It is a good dilemma at least. I bought a Motofab 2.5 kit with a rear block included after a few beers for my 2018 on Amazon and it is sitting in the box. Then I traded to a brand new XLT and bought the Rough Country 2” made for the 21 with the extra cam bolts. Motofab says the 2.5 fits the 2021 and I prefer the extra 1/2 inch (Im Irish).
Both boxes are sitting in my garage. I haven’t made up my mind which kit to install.

From what I'm seeing so far, '14 on up, including '21, are the same. I watched a video recently from a dealer in Orangeville Ontario, that installed the Fox coilovers for '14-'20 and they were saying no difference. Myself, I'm comfortable saying just do it.
The lower control arm is slightly different, and the steering knuckle and sway bars are different, but don't interfere with doing a level.
