Rediculous statement that shows you have no idea what you are talking about.

 

Being as your truck is a 2008, I can almost promise that a 2 inch kit would have had that truck sitting perfectly level.

 

And why is that the reason for a leveling kit is to level the truck if I would have put a 1" maybe even a 2" my truck still would have sat down in the front 3" sat my truck perfectly level.

 

the degree of level people choose is up to them. 3" puts alot of extra stress on the suspension where as the 2.5 will get most people level without alot of extra wear on the truck. plus if you still haul in the truck a 1-2" spacer will have less sag then a 2.5" -3" when loaded.

 

And i agree with that too but i was going for looks when i did mine i dont do much towing with mine the most i tow is a bass boat but when i did tow a heavy load when i was moving it was a 20' enclosed trailer loaded and it didnt sag all that much. But that is the beauty of everyone having there own opinion but evidently having your own opinion means that you have no idea what you are talking. If everyone did everything how one person thought it should be done then we wouldnt need this website because we would all look the same.

 

I would recommend getting one with an offset to keep your A arm from coming in contact with your coils though.

 

i have a 2inch from auto springs and i love it! 75 off ebay plus like 10 for shipping easy install

 

I agree his comment is horse poop

 

They make leveling kits now??? Who woulda thunk it???

 

Everyone has an opinion, just like a-------s, so here is mine. I bought and installed Bilstein 5100 shocks all around, gained the leveling effect I wanted on my 07 FX4 Flareside, and the better quality of the shocks may my truck ride great with the larger tire combo. Whatever works for you, since it's your money, no matter what other people think.

 

News flash- not everyone has your truck! What works on yours may not work the same on someone else's. Different trucks responde differently to different sizes of leveling kits.

You didnt offer an opinion, you offered wrong and incorrect information. To make a general statement like you did and assume everyone else is driving the same truck you are and wants the same look is ignorant. You can get your feelings hurt if you want to, but the fact is those of us who know better will call you out when you post such craziness. Either grow tougher skin or start making sense...or maybe both.

And for the record the general rule is that 3" leveling kits put too much stress on suspension components. But have fun with that.

 

Ok i'm sorry i forgot that this website is the OFFICIAL F150 website and Ford made you there go to man. Just like you said every truck responds differently to different parts, there for that makes just about every post on here an opinion. But i'm not here to argue, i'm here just like everyone else to learn more about our trucks but next time i post something i will make sure that i right "In my opinion".

 

Ok guys, I have a question. I have a 2004 super cab 2wd. I am planning to do a 3" front kit with a 1.5" rear block kit. My understanding is that the 4x4 and 2wd have the same front suspension parts, ie control arms, knuckles, ball joints, etc. The only difference is that the 4x4 has a longer strut, giving it more ground clearance. If this is the case, then installing a 3" kit in the front of my 2wd wouldn't put any more stress on the ball joints than a 1" kit in a 4x4, right? And before anybody says it, yes I know, if I want a big truck just get a 4x4 blah blah blah...
