2" 2.5" 3" leveling kits.

hey guys wich is the correct leveling kit for a stock 2007 f150 supercrew 2wd. Once installed can you really see the difference. I want it even not the front higher than the back or vice versa. thats the only thing im planning to install at this moment also wich is one of the better brands out there. does it affect the handling.

I'd stick with the 2" or 2.5". The 3" kit will create bigger angles which can wear out parts quicker, plus the 3" will make the front higher than the rear.

AutoSpring is a popular leveling kit, as are the Rancho and Bilstein quick lift shocks which give you a 2" lift in the front.

Once the kit is installed, yes you can definitely tell the difference.

I would stick to the 2" , even though mine is 4x4 with the 2.5" it was sitting almost to level that sometimes it looked raked back which I hated the look of so I added a leaf spring but I say going with the 2" would fit you perfect.

I have an 07 FX4 and went with the AS 2" kit. The 2.5" would have been too much lift up front.

Each truck is different. I have a 1.5" on my 2wd and it still sits ever so slightly higher in the front. (shrugs)
