I just ordered one for my 2006 F150 XLT 2wd Supercrew cab. It has quite a bit of slant, but stupid me did not measure. Will my front be higher than the rear?
If so, who makes a 1 inch block for the rear, and how much?

 

A 3'' leveling kit is TOO MUCH! you are really going to mess up the angles on the front suspension, and the truck will ride like sh*t. cancel the order and go w/ a 2-2.5'' kit. The height of the rear should be the least of your worries.

 

I do not have first hand knowledge. But the gurus around here say that 3 in spacers put a very aggressive angle on your suspension. I have read many times that 2 inch spacers gain you 2.5-3 inches of lift. Return the product, and go smaller. You will thank the forum later.

 

I can't cancel. it was on ebay. They have a picture of a truck on the page with the 3 inch, here is the link.

You will lose some money...cheaper than replacing the CV's and arms.

 

What exactly will it mess up and how long would it take to mess it up?

 

See how the lower arm is angled up? It really needs to be more level. Searching for another pic. Too much angle wears the boots and CV's

 

This guy put on a lift kit. See how the lower arm is parallel to the ground?



Do you see the orange Rancho lift? Look where the lower arm (silver piece) mounts to the orange bracket.

Do whatcha want man...Its your truck. I am only regurgitating information that I have learned from this site. Theres a ton of guys around here that KNOW WAY more than me. A vast majority of them agree with what I am telling you here.

 

go on ahead and bolt that on if you're feeling too proud to eat the small loss. keep in mind that you're putting the front end at extreme angles, and are going to greatly accelerate wear on expensive components.

 

Since you have a 4x2, at least you don't have to worry about CV joint angles.

 

yeah it will wear alot faster go with a 2.5 and that will be plenty enough to level out your truck... i went with a 2' and got it level

 

Wandell says he has 4x2 so stay with 3" will be ok. The ball joints maybe at max but go fot it

 

I have a 3 inch spacer on mine for 2 years for 20k miles and have no worries on mine..
look at my pics with 35's on factory rims.i will be getting a real lift soon(i hope)
or maybe just the king coilover kit since the wife is pregent and i dont want her to get in something really big and i have to get sidesteps for her as well.

 

Post some pic`s as soon as you install those babies. I agree that your front joints will wear a lot quicker. Max I went was 2.5 [when my truck was stock ht.] Your ride is going to stiff . Goodluck

 

I got the Bilstein 5100 height adjustable shocks, which supposedly only provide a 2" front lift.... but that by itself, made my truck totally level.
Problem is, I want my truck to be totally level "with" my boat trailer on the hitch, and a little tackle, and deep cycle battery in the bed.... So even with only a 2" front lift, I'm still going to have to get the 1" rear spacer kit.... about $100 from FatBobs http://www.fatbobsgarage.com/cart/pr...17145-182.html

Glad I didn't get a 2 1/2" or especially a 3" front lift.... I guess I could have gotten even taller spacers for the rear, but I'm happy with what I got.....

Peace,
