coil spacers???

I want to level out my 2000 f-150. I dont know if 1.5in. coil spacers would level out my truck. They also offer 2.5 but i would need to buy control arms also. which i dont want to do. So my ? would be which one should I go with to level my truck out. Would 1.5in be enough???

thanks in advance

dont have any experience with lifting, but maybe i can help

Two inch shackles in the rear levels out real nicely, so i agree that 1.5 up front will get you really close to level.
I would expect that if you went more then 1.5 you would also need new shocks.
Just throwin some thoughts out there...
