And possibly a AAL for the rear. I think it would look nice.

Thanks, I love the way it turned out, and if in the future I can always go bigger lol I had them both installed at the same time, the shop I had install them, charged me around $500 for the leveling kit, body lift, gap guards and an alighnment. I didn't notice a huge difference in ride at all, just a little stiffer probably from the spacer.

You will probably pay close to $1000 for the install, gap guards, and lift. I payed $1500 for lift, install, gap guards, shocks, and a tuner.

Yeah, from what I've seen, $1000 labor for installation seems to be about average for an 04-08 F-150. Unless of course you find a shop that has never installed one on a new F-150 and doesn't know what a pain in the but they are.
