Where to get a 2" lift?

Okay..

I'm finally getting into my truck now. I just got my hands on some 18" FX2 rims and now I noticed that my front end sits lower than my back. Been reading a LOT of threads and I guess 2.5" front might make the front a bit higher than the front, then add blocks to the back to level.

So I am guessing a 2" lift for the front is the way to go...anyplace to buy a kit online? There is a shop here that can install, or is it easier to install myself?

Thanks so much guys....really looking forward to modding this truck..lol!!!

Been driving a mustang for the past 2 years and sold her to get a down for a 2011 stang....so the truck is now my daily driver.

first of what is the info on your truck. to level you just need to raise the front and it sounds like you have an 04-08 from the rims you got. id go either a 2.5" or 2" leveling kit and unless you want to have rake again you wont need rear blocks

I think I might check out the 2" lift. anything is way better than how my truck sits now..

Are these easy to install?

I have a 2004 XL F150. I just got me a set of FX2 18" rims off a friend of mines, so my stockers are coming off tomorrow and the new one's are going on with alignment.

These rims look like a gun metal gray/black kind of color. Real nice looking, no curb rash nothing. Was going with an all black look, but for $300 for all 4 with tires that will probably last me a couple of more years...I think it was a good deal..lol!!!
