What would it take to install a leveling kit on my 98 F-150 XL 4.2L V6 5speed? Its a reg. cab if that makes a difference.

you can level out the front pretty good by turning the torsion bar adjusters up. The crossmember that the torsion bars mount in to will have a bolt on the bottom of each torsion bar and you can turn that bolt up and it will raise the front of your truck. You can get about 1 1/2 inches of lift from this but it will stiffen up your ride. You can get a torsion key kit that replaces your factory torsion keys and gives you 2-3 inches of lift with the factory ride and then put an inch taller block in back or get an add-a-leaf.
