It ain't ugly!

Is this a wheel spacer or a level kit?

Corrected, thanks! Fat fingered the ole phone.

We did a non squatch BL last week, 1.5" Fabtech front, 1/2" of Rough Country spacers in the rear. The Rough Country comes with Four 1/4" Shims for the top, two 1/2" for the bottom front (because of leverage 1/4" spacer = 3/8" to 7/16" of front lift). The top shims work on the back to give 1/4" of extra height to prevent the Alabama Rake. To level a non Squatch BL, the Rough Country minus one upper shim should do it.

Looks good with no additional payload. Add weight in the rear and it will look different.

The Rough Country spacers work perfectly for a minor adjustment if you need a little rake, five minute install. It squatted way down when I hauled a load of firewood the day I bought it - and that was bone stock - and on the way home from picking it up.

What size wheels are those? 20x9? that look great!

Those were TIS 20x9 ET19 with 35x12.50/20 Toyo Open Country on a customer's BL.

So you ordered a Fab tech level kit and put it fully on in the front, then ordered a rough country level kit and installed only half of it in the back, so you lifted slightly, and also only slightly changed the rake? The rear bolts were long enough for this ? This is exactly what i wanted to do, is there any worries of wheel going to far up OR down? I dont know too much but i wanted some lifet not just only level, wasnt actually big on the idea of "level" since ford doesnt do it that way from the factory, if this is only leveled slightly that seems perfect?

There is plenty of bolt on the rear for the Rough Country. And yes, Fabtech front, RC rear.

You will want the RC rear to level up a BL non Squatch - of just a RC kit up front to match the stock rear.

oh dang i thought the install was done on an actual Sas, have you guys installed the Fab only on a 1.5 on an actual SAS?

The above two door is a SAS. It took the Fabtech 1.5" and I am putting one 1/4" RC in the rear just in case I have a cooler back there.
