Leveling kit opinions?
I am thinking about buying the BDS 2.5" shackle leveling kit.
BDS 2.5 Inch Hanger System - 2000-2004 F250/350 4wd - Truck Toyz Store
Any opinions on this vs. the minispring packs?
The BDS is a good bit of change, but oyu usually get what you pay for. Anybody have either of these setups?
Also, how necessary do you all find an adjustable trac bar?
Thanks guys

If you are wanting to just raise the front end, install X springs from Ford. It raised mine 2 1/4 inches and greatly improved handling and ride quality. Mine always felt like it wallered when on the brakes and turning. The X springs were one of the best mods I have made to my truck. The springs are about $400 with u-bolts and nuts.

Waaaay overpriced in my opinion. I got a 4 inch block in the back and replaced the stock F-250 block, and added these shackles from eBay, very high quality. It took about 1 and a 1/2 hours to install and was fairly straight forward. Here is the guy I got the shackles from:eBay Motors: FORD F-250 F-350 SUPERDUTY DIESEL GAS SHACKLE LIFT KIT (item 330278146081 end time Nov-10-08 03:36:43 PST)

Don't the kits that lift with leaf speings change the ride quality quite a bit? I thought they did, and the shackle kits keep pretty much a factory ride.
I need new shocks which is what started this whole thing, and that kit comes with some pretty good shocks. Most of the leaf spring kits, you have to buy the shocks seperate. I know that kit is a little pricey, but it is all inclusive really(except for the adj. trac bar), and I thought BDS was worth the extra coin? no? You usually get what you pay for.
Thanks for the input so far guys, keep it coming. I am the type that is forever to make a decision.
