i got the 2.5 because when the spring settles it will really drop a bit so a 2.5 will more than likely end up a 2"

I have the 2.5" spacers and my front is a half inch higher than the back.

Daystar makes a 2.5" spacer to go on top of your stock coils or you could get leveling coils that are longer. The spacer is around $100 and the coils around $175.

i just put daystar spacers on last weekend on mine. i like the look but now i have to get bigger tires to fill the hole. i knew that at the beginning. they are simple to put in. but you will need a good jack. my old 2 1/4 ton jack wouldnt raise the front end very much so i went and got a 3.5 ton and that made it alot easier. i have a 06 F350 singles in the rear and my front end is still a tad bit lower that the rear. cant hardly tell though.
