1.5" AS Leveling Kit

Does anyone have this kit? Or has anyone heard anything about them? I want to clear 285/65/20 BFG All Terrains on the factory 20" wheels. I want just enough lift to clear the tires with no rubbing, but i do not want the front of the truck to sit higher than the back. The reason I want to know about this kit is because I have seen some F-150's with the 2" kit and the nose is still in the air.

You can clear those tire without a leveling kit.

I dont think I can fit those tires without a leveling kit....they are around 34.5" in diameter and around 11.50" wide. I will probably just go with the 2" to be safe....just looking at all of my options

it depends on the year, how much level in the front you need. supposedly 04's and 05's have one more spring. 2" levels out the 06+ and the 2.5" for the 04/05. this is just what i read on here, so it may be incorrect.

I had the 2.5" kit on my truck prior to lifting and to the eye sat perfectly level, but measurement wise I was 1/2" higher in the rear. Right now my truck sits a little higher in the rear because I'm running 5" blocks, I'm thinking about adding either a 1" (do they make 1" leveling kits) or the 1.5" kit on the front of my truck.

You can always do a 3" block in the rear if you want it to sit higher in the rear.

My '04 took a 2 1/2" kit to level it out and clear 35's on the front using the right wheels.

Forgot to say that I put a 2.5" kit on and my rear end still sits about 1/2" higher than the front

You're right I don't want it to be higher in the rear, but it does sit a little lower in the front right now. Was hoping they made a 1" kit because I think that would be perfect.
