Hi, I was talking to a shop about getting a leveling kit installed. I wanted to find out from people who had them if they had any issues with them and how it rides compared to the factory set up? I was looking around the net and noticed some places have a 2 piece kit or does it matter which one you get? They told me I could get a leveling kit and then upgrade to a 33" tire with new wheels? I have 255/70/17s right now and it's a 09 Supercrew 4x4, thanks a lot.

No issues with mine. 2.5" autospring installed personally. I'd go with a
one piece. Yep you can fit 33s easily.

 

Thanks for the info, your truck looks really sharp. I was worried about the tire hitting the bumper some when the wheel was turned all the way, that's the problem I had on my 04 Silverado even after a 3" body lift when I tried putting 285s on there, thanks again.

 

Seems like fords have a lot larger wheel well than the rest. My 35s rub on plastic in reverse. I could fix it but it's not that big of a deal. So yeah 33s no problem, as long as you use a wheel close to stock specs.

 

I called auto spring and the guy told me they didn't have one for the 09' yet only 04-08. I see people saying the AS fit, but others had problems.

I checked the Hellbent site and they have a specific one for the 09'. What's the difference?

Well I dont know if you already got one yet or not but I have a 3 inch in the front a 2 inch in the back and it rides just the same. Something pops in the front and that could just be from where the guy put it on who knows but other that that, no problems!!!

scott6809 There are listings right now on Ebay for the Auto Spring leveling kits for 2009-2010 F150's


Try ebay listing # 130341290572 OR # 130338985450

 

I never checked on ebay, but that's what the rep told me from As. I wasn't sure if there was a difference between hellbent and AS. I also checked the website, which didn't show an 09..
