New Struts/Shocks and leveling truck

Hello. My 2007 f150 fx4 is in need of new struts/shocks as the ride is getting noticeably rough.

I would like to install "ready struts" with the coil springs already attached. I'm thinking about the rough country kit but Im afraid that it will lift my front end too much as the 07/08's dont have as much rake as the earlier pickups.

What do you guys recommend?

Thanks

Rancho lists their quicklift loaded as a 2.5" lift. They also offer a 7000 series listed as 2 inches, but is not a complete unit, and requires reusing the stock springs. I have full set of the quicklifts for my 10 Expedition, that I haven't installed yet, they seem to be well made.

I have the Rancho Quick Lift Loaded's on my 05. I have about 68k miles on them and am quite happy.

I have the Rancho RS999910 quick lift struts on my '07 FX4 and they are excellent. There is still a 'pinch' of rake, which I like. I'm not a fan of the 'nose up' look.

Thanks EBC-150. For $160 shipped, I think I might go that route. What did you install in the rear for shocks?
