Best way to level the Titan

Is it better to raise the front?

Or...

Is it better to lower the rear?

What are the pros and cons of them?

Will doing a rear shackle drop decrease the towing and payload capacity of the truck? even with the tow package?


I need some help...

Re: Best way to level the Titan

personal preference...

I personally like to be higher up to see more of the road so I raised the front.

Re: Best way to level the Titan

But how are handling and towing affected?

I would imagine that handling would increase with a rear lower, but at the cost of towing capacity.

On the other hand... raising the front would keep towing capacity the same, but decrease handling...

I would go with a coilover and preload the spring to level it out in front. It tow better and handle better.

Re: Best way to level the Titan

I noticed since it was raised in the front the handling was better for me, it may be different for others. I have not towed anything yet so I don't know about that.

I also plan on going higher next year.
