I want my ride hight normal

Hi guys I imported a 05 Crew 2WD with a Regency kit into New Zealand.

The regency kit fitted uses a Ground force lowering kit with a 2/5 Drop

I want to bring it back to a stock ride height or at least raise the **** 2~3 inches in the rear and an inch in the front.

My question is what would I require to obtain the stock ride height, is it shackles and shocks and springs in the rear and just springs in the front .

How and who would be the best to buy the components thru, as you can appreciate the F150's in New Zealand are by private import (Hence ther are very few) and have to be converted to RHD once they arrive in the country, so Imust make sure that I get the right parts cause I cant just shoot down the road to purchase them.

Any help would be appreciated it just sitting too low in the **** lower than my sons ricer.

Cheers Phil

Welcome to the site! The front is easily raised with a Autospring leveling kit. I'm not sure how the rear is lowered with that kit. It's probably a flip kit.

I have since found out that the kit that was installed contains the following:

2 x Front Shocks and Coil Springs

2 x Rear Shocks
2 x Rear Leaf Springs
2 x New Bumper Stops The leaf hangers are apparently standard

So I suppose i will either have to get my rear leafs rebuilt and or try and purchase some new/old ones. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
I think I can buy the front springs in New Zealand so my concern is mainly the rear leafs and the U bolts. Wish I could find someone in New Zealand that had a standard height F150 that wanted it lowered then i could do a swap.
