Worries about leveling

Hey all, I have a 2006 screw lariat, and I'm interested in leveling my baby. In order to get the most level look, should I go for a 2" autospring or 2.5"? Also, what will change about how the truck drives (handling, stiffer or more bouncy ride, etc.), and how does leveling my truck affect my warranty? Thanks!

i would say go with the 2.5" lift. also it should not really affect your ride or the way it drives. this should have no effect on your warranty. are you going to be getting different tires or rims?

my poor ford is a 2wd , which kinda ruins the fun, but whatever

i do plan on putting larger tires once i level my truck, not sure how big yet, but i will be running the stock rims, or i might buy someones king ranch rims? not sure which stock ford rims but i like 'em, rims arent really my thing, just makes my truck a target for theft.....

My FX4 is running a 2.5" kit. Sits nice and level. Go with a Autospring kit.

I strayed from the norm and went the Hell Bent Steel 2.5" Level Kit.

As for the ride comfort, handling and whatnot with only a level kit, I can't comment as, from stock, I leveled and went the tire/wheel package right away.

Sure it doesn't ride and handle like OEM but I have no complaints.

Good luck in your decision.
