Hey y'all I just got a 2004 fx4 from the fleet at my uncles oil company. Great truck! I love it.

I am looking to get at least a leveling kit on there for an extra couple inches.

Looking around I see it's real common to just put the 2" spacers in the front. On ebay I also came across this:

It has the spacers in the front but also adds a leaf to help lift in the rear. Why is this incompatible with my fx4?

Also, any other advice y'all have on brands or methods or anything else to help me get a couple inces is appreciated

 

It says it fits fx4's.

 

Doh! I got that mixed up with another one I saw... Would you guys reccomend this option?

 

If you wanna maintain the stock rake, if you want to level get one without the leaf.

 

You are going to want a 2.5" leveling kit for the 04 to get it level. Anything added in the rear will give you your rake back.

edit: if that was an oil field truck new shocks might be a good idea. You can knock out 2 birds with one stone by using bilstein adjustables and get a 2" level out of them.

 

I put the Rancho Quick Lift Loaded's on my 05 back in July... got about 2" or so...truck is not totally level, but I am happy with the looks and ride...FWIW...

Regards!
