level or lift my truck
have 2009 fx4 4x4 want to put at least 33"tires&20"rims on itwhat size leveling kit do i need also will my tires rub may consider a small lift and 35" tires what is the best lift for this truck somebody help anybody!
if you want to just run 33" tires then just get a leveling kit but it you want 35's with a leveling kit then your looking at a very limited selection of wheels to choose from to fit 35's with limited trimming otherwise I would jump it up to a suspension lift and your selection of wheels will be a lot larger but there is quite a price difference a leveling kit runs about $75 and a suspension lift is gonna be about $1500 and then your probably gonna wanna re gear which will be another $1100.
Or a PLS kit from Performance Accessories. That's a 3" body lift with a 2" leveler plus gap guards. The whole kit will cost you about $900. The labor to do an '09 is a lot less than the previous generation of F150s. You no longer need to go through the cab of the truck to get to the body bolts.

Personaly though i don't like the big 22's with just a 33 looks to low profile for me
But if the money is there go with a 4in rancho or rough country
Or you can go with a 6in rancho or procomp
But you wont need to regear with just a 35 unless you just want to
Also if you go with a bigger tire i would get an intake and a programmer to help get some power back also a exhaust.
completely agree. give it a few months of having your leveling kit, and youll want to go bigger. you should just go ahead and get the lift, you wont regret it.
