Just lifted 22 Lightning

[Drayday55]

I just got it lifted. 2 inch Procomp spacer lift with 270/70/18s on black rhino rapids and falken wild peaks. Looks killer. I'm waiting for coilovers to come out ( for a lift) icons with external resi maybe

Milage drop from 2.0. 2.2 on a good day to 1.8. More realistic 1.65 the way I drive. 265 miles with 90% SOC now it's down to around 200 to 220 per 90% SOC.

Pretty big hit in milage with agressive tread tires

I too am waiting for some coilovers!

Ouch, that's a hard mileage hit but it looks great.

Yeah. I blame 15% of that to the lift and 85% on the all terrain tires. I'll burn them up in 9 months. I'm looking forward to the EV toyos I saw. They look like they get plenty of traction and hopefully better milage

When I saw the headline, "Just lifted" I thought you meant you had just stolen a Lightning!

Are you guys working on an off road Lightning version? I wont tell anyone.

Look at Nokian NAT

Yours looks awesome, still haven’t seen another leveled one besides mine in the wild only online.
I did a ReadyLift 2” leveling kit with a set of 2022 Raptor takeoffs. 315/70/R17 BFG K02s. My range dropped by about 20% with my standard range battery and and LA traffic.

Thanks. I'm searching around for some slightly used coilovers to replace my front springs.

How is your bluecruise?


Now that I lifted my truck it swings back and forth between the lines. I only noticed this on one trip but on a long downhill it seems to not ping pong as much. I think it does have something to do with the camera or sensor seeing the lanes. Because when I was flat or uphill it seemed to ping pong more.

This could also be due to the alignment being different. The steering definitely feels more twitchey since the lift. I don't know what angle ( camber/ caster etc. Does this )

Maybe a different upper controll arm could help


I wonder if the dealer can aim the camera downward to compensate if it is the camera

No BlueCruise on mine. Didn’t want to spend the extra 10k, when I ordered( January 2022) the options were very limited.The 315s definitely make it a little slower off of the line but I think it looks way better than stock.

Are you not concerned that you have 113 load rated tires on a vehicle that specs a minimum 115 and preferably 116?
