2' Leveling Kit Recommendations?

I have a 2009 King Ranch SuperCrew and I am looking to put a 2 inch leveling kit on it and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on which one to get?

I have a 2006 FX4 and installed a Bilstein 5100 2" Leveling kit on it. It looks great and rides and handles even better.

If you need shock's I would go with the Bilstein 5100's...you can level up to 2 inches plus a better ride. If you decide to go with a leveling kit...Autospring..Hell Bent Steel...Rough Country...Daystar are all good brand's.

I've had my 2" HBS installed for about 3 months now. No problems or concerns.

Another vote for Bilstein 5100's. I installed them on my '10 when it was new. I didn't need shocks by any means, but I'm glad I chose this route. It does give it a stiffer ride, especially over speed bumps, but keeping wear off other components was a concern, and the 5100's reportedly do a MUCH better job at reducing wear, compared to spacer kits.
