Leveling Kit Recommendations

This is my third F150, but have never added any suspension/leveling mods. Just bought a 2011 XLT Supercrew 4WD. I am considering a leveling kit, but don't want to go the full 2-2.5 inches. I still want to maintain a minimal front rake. Anyone recommend what height (1 or 1.75 inches) and what brand of kit? Thanks in advance.

Checked the link...lots of good info. I guess I need to know what current owners are saying about their 1-1.75" lifts...Not sure I want to go the 2-2.5". Anyone have the smaller levelers installed?

do a search for 1.5" leveling kit (in the suspension section, not 09-11), have to weed thru a few pages but you should find a few helpful threads.

I have a 1.5'' Autospring on mine and its almost dead level. There are pics in my profile, some of them look nose high due to uneven ground.

I put a Rancho Quick Lift on my 2011 and am very happy with looks and ride. A little more rigid then stock, but I think that is a good thing.

Enjoy it either way.

That's wierd how you got so much lift from a 1.5" leveling kit.
I have a 2" AS and my truck still has a 1/2" of rake. I like a little rake but I couldn't stand the 2.5" of rake mine had when it was stock.

I recommend a set of bilstein 5100's. Had mine now for 6 or 8 months, and love em. If you don't want the full height, you can choose one of 3 settings for height. Better in the long run than a spacer..... http://cart.bilsteinus.com/product/24-187497/1447390
