Yep, little bit of squat. I'd bring the rear up myself but if you like it that's allbthat matters my friend.
Im gonna ride like that for awhile, and probably do the back, and take out the spacer and put the same type of shocks in the back. I'll pick up those other parts the other guy recommended, like the rear upper and lower arms, but not until the fall.

I measured from the center of the hub to the fender flare and its actually a little over a half inch higher.
Half an inch is only one Super Sized Extra Value Meal away from being level.

Exactly. I told myself I wasn't changing a damn thing on my Badlands. Silly me for thinking such nonsense.

This is a fun thread.

I believe those fox shocks you bought are designed to clear 37s. Why also cheap out and not do the same coil overs in the back? You need some rake on the Bronco for it to handle good on the road and trail. I’m running 1 inch of rake.

I never did like the way my Bronco drove leveled and always felt floaty down the highway. Now my Bronco is set lower in the front by 1 inch. I’m in a 2 door however.

They were not the full coilovers, they were the fox shocks that you use your oem spring and tophat. And im gonna run it like this for the summer and do the rears, with the replacement of the rear arms as well.

maybe I'm missing something, but taking a 3/4 view/45 Degree/oblique angle pic of the bronco - its hard for me to see if it rear is lower than the front. Are you just looking at the top of the tire to the bottom of the wheel well? Not a single parallel pic...on level ground.... interested in the topic as I want to learn more about how people figure out the rake and the level when hacking up their Broncos.

So if just got done with my build, after posting on here different pieces I bought what I was planning on doing, to getting different opinions and advice, a few negative remarks but I see that is very common in here. The problem I'm having is, I actually like the result I have and I know I'm not supposed too. So I did a 3in lift in the front with the 987-62-000 fox shocks, I changed out the upper control arms, with whiteline upper control arms, i was gonna just add tie rod sleeves but I was told not to do that because it will fuck up the whole tie rod, so I replaced the whole tie rod kit with icon tie rods. The rear I did just a 1.5in spacer, I thought it was gonna be a 2in spacer like it said on the site, but that's another story. And I replaced the track bar. And I some diff cover or something like that installed, im not a mechanic, and this is my first offroad vehicle, and I used everything that sounded somewhat intelligent from multiple forums. After myself and my brother inlay did the build and tgan took it to discount tire to have my tires, wheels balanced and aligned, the front end was a higher than the front. My brother inlay said it is going to level down some when you drive it a little more, which it did, but the front is still about an 1in higher, not quite but close. So I ordered a different set of spacers that are 2.5in in the rear to adjust th the difference. Here lies my problem, I actually like the way it looks, and I know its not supposed to be that way, but honestly it looks like a beast that way. Pictures dont do it justice. So my question is how bad will ot fuck my bronco up if I ride like that for a little while
