Question 2WD F150s leveled

Ok I know Im going to hear you guys harass me but I just bought a 2005 F150 Scab Street Boss and Im not sure what I want to do level the back down or level the front up so if any of you guys have pics of 2wd F150s leveled by raising the front post some pics. After having to sell my 06 FX4 earlier this year its hard to get use to being low again my 06 FX4 had a BDS 6 inch lift with 35s so thats why Im considering raising the front of the truck I just got.

My 05 with a 2" AS spacer and 1.5" AAL, stock tires.



My truck with stock front and rear 2" GF drop shackles on 265/70-17 tires.



I prefer the dropped rear on 2wd trucks.

2" AS. Going to change it out because it sits about half inch higher in the front.

Your front tire looks like it is about to fall off.

IMO 2WD's should never have the front lifted. Either lower the rear or leave it stock. That's just my opinion.

I leveled my regular cab truck with a 2" shackle kit -- lots of pictures in my gallery if you're interested.

Unless you wanna go for a street truck then I'd raise the front and get some 33's. If your not going to match the level with wheels (up or down) your better off to leave it stock.

but if you ever take your truck off the pavement it can be nice to have the extra clearance
