3" leveling kits...please help!

Okay guys, i just bought my first ford about a month ago, and someone should have slapped me for not buying one earlier! And all my trucks have had leveling kits. I just cant have the thing in grandpa mode any longer, lol. So i have decided to go with a 3" leveling kit. For some reason iv always liked the front to sit higher than the back. In my personal opinion, it just gives the truck a meaner look! Im not sure what AS means, if its just a brand or abreviation. Im new to the site so dont dog me too bad. But if you guys would please give me any feedback i would greatly appreciate it. As far as brands, and who makes the tallest 3" leveling kit. I just ride paved roads, so im not too worried about ball joint strain. So there is my situation, please post your thoughts! Thanks!!

Hey, welcome to the site!

AS is an abbreviation for Auto Spring (ebay sprngbender) and they make a quality kit as well. I run their 2.5'' kit on my 07, and I actually got close to 3'' of lift, and love it. if you are going for that nose-up or "Cali" stance, you will be in good shape!
